TL;DR

For a picky child aged around 1–2, bring familiar backup foods such as jarred meat puree, meatballs and instant porridge. Hotel buffets commonly offer rice, fries, vegetables, pancakes and waffles, but quality and suitability vary by property.

Instant porridge is a practical backup: prepare it with hot water and add milk if needed. It can be useful when a child refuses most hotel food.
