We have found a "sassy seat" to work very well.  It's a high-chair
substitute that attaches directly to the table.  It's very portable and
lightweight, so that we can throw it in the car when we go somewhere.
To clean it, we just toss it in the dishwasher (we have a plastic version--
the dishwasher might not be as practical for a cloth one).  It's also
much less expensive (~$16 three years ago) than a regular high-chair,
and easier to store.

The major disadvantage I know of is that it does not work on all tables
(my parents' dining room table, for example).  If you plan to use it instead
of a high-chair, you might borrow one from a friend and try it out on your
table.
