Just to clarify-- are these "recommended" places that you’ve actually been to, or is this basically a huge list of places that exist in each of these areas?
I don’t know about others, but I know for me, a bit more editorializing in the form of a shorter list and a bit of commentary about each place would be much better than a giant but unembellished list. I could probably only hope to go to 3 or 4 places AT MOST while I’m in town for the short weekend. Much more likely to be 1 or 2 places. |

These are places that either I have been or friends recommend such as the Chinese places because I am not a fan of Chinese. I will try to add some more detail, I have just been trying to finish it quickly. |
Ok since I was asked for more detail I will make some smaller lists with more info.

Espetus is a Brazilian restaurant where servers roam around with large hunks of flame roasted meat on sticks and keep filling your plate with it until you tell them to stop.
Dotties is famous for breakfast and is always packed to the brim. |
