Toddler at a local rice-and-curry place — any high chairs or kids menus, or just share our plates?

Most local rice-and-curry places will not have a Western high chair or a printed kids menu — that is normal, not a snub. Families share: ask for plain rice, dhal, and a mild curry on the side, cut food small, and use a lap or a corner seat. A compact travel seat or cloth harness in the daybag helps. Smile, point to the child, and staff usually understand. Avoid the spiciest dishes and bones. You are supporting local places by showing up patient, not by expecting a tourist-chain setup.
