Thank you for your respose. 
I tried with a type code and it seems to be working. Seems like a bug in the 
documentation then? Where can I find the codes for categories? Or a I 
missing something again?

I read 
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/places/#PlaceSearchRequests , 
which doesn't use any codes for places types and supported places types 
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/places/supported_types.html

Even the example in the above place documentation page uses a type called 
'food'. 

Can you please guide me to the right documentation?
