Restaurant: Joy Bistro
Address: 884 Queen St. E.
Meal: Saturday Brunch
Stroller Friendly: Yes both patio and inside - The staff were great at choosing a table were the stroller was out of the way and easy for us to reach.
Change Table: No - We had to place some paper towels on the floor then a blanket and make our own change table. The floor in the barrier free washroom are cleaner and more spacious.
Breastfeeding: The booths are very comfy for breast-feeding. While I was nursing the staff left us alone, I found it amusing that as soon as I was done nursing the waiter came by and filled my water glass; it was like he was waiting for the green light that is was ok to approach us. All in all I felt comfortable nursing.
Server: Good without being exceptional.
Food: Average.

Dining in Toronto with Baby
Geoff and I have always enjoyed eating out at restaurants; however since Christophe has been born we have not attempted too many outings until recently. Anyone who knows me well; will tell you I am not to fond of most "family restaurants". Being a vegetarian there is usually only a veggie burger or veggie wrap to chose from.
That been said I have decided to blog about the various places we test out with Baby and rate different aspects.
Restaurant: Casa Di Giorgio
Address: 1646 Queen St. E.
Meal: Friday Supper
Stroller Friendly: Patio yes; Inside no - The inside of the restaurant is very tiny which makes it hard to find a spot to park your wheels; we chose to eat on the patio. They were great at helping us chose the perfect spot for our stroller.
Change Table: No - We made sure to be seated on the wooden benches outside; these are long enough to use as a change table in a discreet way. Make sure to bring a plastic bag to hide the dirty diaper in.
Breastfeeding: The benches on the patio are very comfy for breast feeding; I am not sure I would have been able to breast-feed on the patio chairs due to the chair arms. The staff and patrons did not make any comments or treat us differently while I was feeding. While I was nursing him the waitress came up and took our order just like any other table.
Server: Our waitress was extra great with Christophe stopping to talk to him each time she was at our table.
Food: As always the food here is great; they have probably been one of my favorite Italian spot in the city for a while now.
