Restaurant Guide

A list of places to eat (pretty obvious really!)

There have been many good restaurant guides produced over the years, and here is some of the information that they have included:

  • Name of restaurant
  • Cuisine type (pizza, Indian, French etc.)
  • Address
  • Zip/postal code, especially useful if people will be using SatNav or MapQuest/Multimap etc.
  • phone number for booking or to order delivery
  • website (for menus, online booking etc.)
  • price guide (either a typical meal price range, or sometimes encoded, e.g. "$"=cheap to "$$$$$"=very expensive)
  • any other factual notes (dress code, closed on Labor Day, booking required on Saturday evenings, Kareoke Elvis on Sunday)
  • if possible, a quick review ("great pizza, avoid the garlic bread, service very slow on Saturdays")

Unless it is a really short list, it is suggested that restaurants should be listed grouped by cuisine/culture (e.g. Japanese, Italian etc.)

It is also possible to divide restaurants into "delivery/takeaway" and "eat in".

And it is possible to divide restaurants by distance/time (e.g. short walking distance, long walk, taxi/car/bus distance)

Cross reference with local area map (e.g. put in reference numbers on the map and match them up on the restaurant list)
