A lobster with every meal

Lately I've had this ever-growing pet peeve. It happens when we go out to eat. I have to locate or request a highchair, and 9 times out of 10 that highchair is
1) unavailable
2) smothered in grossness
3) uncomfortable for little guy
4) easy for little guy to slip out of
5) of no use because the straps are twisted, broken, or missing
6) bulky
7) not the right height of our table, making it difficult for him to self-feed or play with toys.

Once again Phil&Teds have made my life better. I give you "The Lobster".

This most wonderful of products is not yet in my possession, but I cross my fingers that it will be. Soon.
This would make eating out much more enjoyable. It is easy to clean, very supporting of a chunky little dude, fits on any flat surface, and folds up nicely into a little black bag. Genius I tell you!

Phil&Teds is gonna make me broke.

Oh Lindsey I know what you mean...Phil and Teds is going to make me broke! I love this high chair too but I definitely can't afford it after buying all the other stuff! Love you!

I know exactly what you mean! I usually have to switch out the high chairs a few times until I get one that is doable. Its annoying. Let me know how you like this!

We have a different, cheaper portable seat (this one).

My friends have one like this one.

Just some cheaper options. :)

oh my gosh, I so need one! every time we put Lacey in a restaurant highchair, she just slips right out and stands up! of course she isn't very balanced so we still end up eating one-handed because we have to hold her! restaurant highchair seatbelts are so worthless, I don't know why they bother putting them on because they are usually broken and are never tight enough even if they aren't! great idea to bring your own portable!!
