Wikitravel:Restaurant listings
From Wikitravel
Jump to: navigation, search
Restaurant listings should be in the format below:
Name of Restaurant, Address (extra directions if necessary), phone number (email, fax, other contact if possible), [1]. Days and times open. One to three sentences about the food, service, atmosphere, view, specialties, music, what have you. $lowprice-$highprice (extra price info).
Here's the Wiki markup:
*'''Name of Restaurant''', Address (''extra directions if necessary''), phone number (''email, fax, other contact if possible''), [http://www.restaurant.example.com/]. Days and times open. One to three sentences about the food, service, atmosphere, view, specialties, music, what have you. $lowprice-$highprice (''extra price info'').
Here's an example from Montreal:
Ouzeri, 4690 Rue St. Denis (one block north of Avenue Mont Royal), +1 514 845-1336. Tu-Th 5PM-1AM, F-Sa 12PM-2AM. Fine Greek dining, great selection of ouzos and Greek wines. Stylish and modern. Try the flambé cheese hors d'oeuvre -- it's dramatic. $25-$35 (prix fixe menu on Friday and Saturday).
[edit] Some notes
Addresses should just be the street and number, not a full postal address. If the city is different (for example, in a suburb), add that, too.
Phone numbers should be in the format as they would be dialed internationally, but in a way that shows the part that can be dialed locally.
Days should be abbreviated (M Tu W Th F Sa Su), times should be AM and PM.
Prices should be in the local currency.
URLs should point to the official Web site for the restaurant and conform to Wikitravel guidelines for external links. If there's no official Web site, just leave that part out.
Properties should be listed in alphabetical order within a single subsection of "Eat"
[edit] Describing a chain of restaurants
Chains of restaurants/cafes should be reviewed in the city/region's main article. Individual locations should be placed in their specific districts (if it's city-wide chain) or towns (if the chain spans multiple towns in the region). Details applicable to all locations should be included into a global review; all individual details of specific locations should be described locally. Please do not copy a global review to every local description in districts; instead refer from district listing to a global review in the main article.
If there're multiple individual locations in a single article, list them all only if there's no more than 7 locations. Otherwise, try to use more compact description, like "most locations are in districts A and B, plus several in the district C".
Example:
Harold's Chicken Shack. The great South Side fried chicken chain is cheap, usually a little dirty, and always delicious. Crowded at meal times. $2-5.
917 W 87th St, ☎ +1 773 224-4621. 11AM-3AM daily.
10259 S Halsted St, ☎ +1 773 568-5906. M-Th 10AM-midnight, F-Sa 10AM-1AM, Su 11AM-10PM.
2521 W 63rd St, ☎ +1 773 778-9659. Su-Th 11AM-2:30AM, F-Sa 11AM-4AM.
