In NYC, IKEA is one of the last places you can take out the family without spending a fortune - though slightly insane to try and eat there on Sundays after the churches let out. The meatballs are a huge hit with all the kiddos, not just mine. Absolutly amazing they keep the cafeteria area so clean. Ikeas make good rest stops when traveling also - let the kids run around small-land for an hour, fill up on meatballs, hit the restrooms, grab a tray of cinnamon rolls, then on the road again.
