I do not agree. This is more fundamental than cuisine in the indian context. Cuisine could be north indian, continental, chinese, american or what have you. The first point for determination of where to eat is veg/non-veg, as far as India is concerned. This is evidenced by the government making it mandatory to specify this by red/green circles on all food. For example take chinese cuisine (not that chinese in India remotely resembles chinese cuisine), this is divided again into veg/non-veg. As pointed out this applies also to burger and pizza joints. So a map catering to indian tastes would make this the prime designator for restaurants. -- regards Kenneth Gonsalves Senior Project Officer NRC-FOSS http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/ _______________________________________________ Talk-in mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-in
