Locals are a great source of information so ask around. Asking locals can
bring you some of the best information available about a restaurant. However,
sometimes locals, such as hotel front desk staff and cab drivers, get referral
fees for bringing in customers, so don't
forget to ask some questions and do a
little looking around before you go in.
In tourist areas, casual dress is usually appropriate in all but the most
expensive Restaurants. Restaurants in downtown locations, business areas or in
private clubs tend to have a more formal dress code. The general trend has been
for restaurants to become more casual, but if you have any doubts, it is
certainly worth a phone call.
