I've found Google Map's food search oddly dysfunctional, without a way to search for category-independent any Food&Drink. What am I missing?
Abstract UX conversation: Q:"What are my nearby food options?" A:"Restaurants, Groceries, Coffee, Desert, or Bars?" (those are subcategories under Food&Drink). Q:"Yes, any of those. Please also include bakeries. And (especially in ethnic areas) convenience stores." A:"Which?" (but you can't search for Food&Drink). Q:"Any Food!" A:"Which?" Q:"Sigh". I've been "Wait, isn't there that nice cafe around here somewhere... I'm not seeing it under Restaurants... nor Coffee... nor a typed search for "cafe"... nor "food"... arg, ok, "bakery" finds it. Sigh.". So exploring food options requires manually integrating multiple searches. I'm puzzled.
