do when we go out to dinner with our little one in Sanur. Hit the beachfront restaurants early (between 5.30-6.30), take the beach toys & we enjoy a drink while our little girl plays in the sand & we wait for our meals. There is usually at least one other family doing the same thing so kids have new playmates. Everyone's happy! Will be doing the same thing when we head to Legian/Seminyak.
Something else we do - feed the little one at the hotel around 6.00ish & then go out to dinner around 7.30 (usual bedtime) with her in the stroller. Head for a restaurant at least 10-15 mins walk away & hey presto, she is asleep in the stroller before we get there & we enjoy a peaceful dinner :-)
