Dinnersitter

     In the history of the world, there have been some great ideas — the light bulb, sliced bread, world peace — but Digs Bistro has them all beat with Parents’ Nite Out. Instead of paying through the nose for a babysitter who could cancel at the drop of a hangnail, every first Monday of the month, Digs offers babysitting in a private dining room, allowing at the same time weary parents to reconnect and perhaps even a toast to a special occasion.
     At $10 for the first child and $5 for every sibling, little ones remain occupied with coloring books, movies and other fun activities supervised by a former server — the resident babysitter since Digs started this tradition nearly two years ago.
     The best part is everyone fills up on chef-and-owner Heidi DiPippo’s delicious New American cuisine, which is made mostly with local and organic ingredients that extend to the simpler fare for the kids. Be sure to call a week or two in advance, as news of this great idea spreads fast.
