Phil & Ted metoo chair: Let's baby sit at the table, even on the go
Going out to eat can sometimes be a challenge. Not every restaurant or person you visit has a highchair. Even when the restaurant has one, sometimes the highchair is being used, is filthy, broken or not safe to use (such as when I visited Schnack in Red Hook, Brooklyn and was told by the waiter, "we have a high chair but I wouldn’t put my kid in it!"). That’s when a portable seat like the Phil & Ted metoo chair comes in handy.
The metoo chair is a portable high-chair made of aluminum and nylon that attaches onto most tables.

The metoo chair comes in red, navy and black. It retails for $50 and is available at Target.com, TravellingwithKids.com, and local retailers.
