Kid-Friendly San Francisco Restaurants: Nine Spots For Young Foodies (PHOTOS)

Since they started their food blog for kids three years ago, San Francisco's Stacie Dong and Simran Singh of A Little Yumminess have become experts not only in keeping their children's appetites stoked at home but also when they are eating out.

When they go to restaurants, they usually order an adult entree and share it with their kids or select an appetizer -- a few kofte at a Greek spot, for instance -- for each child. Tapas spots and dim sum restaurants are among their favorite kid-friendly restaurants.
