Lovin' Leeds: Researching local restaurants.

Beginning to research restuarants local to the Leeds City Centre for the Lovin' Leeds Thursday workshop project. The restuarants would be approached to participate in the live event, representing the cuisine of their specific countries and showcasing the meals and recipes they have to offer.  
I found the above map which utilisises the facilities of Google Maps- showcasing the locations of the restaurants. This would be a brilliant print based resource for the invited guests- who could quickly and easily locate the restaurants and eateries of their choice, as well as being able to browse along the sign-posted highstreet and main roads from The Headrow centre.
