| Perhaps we can best describe these guides by first
telling you what they are not. They are not guides in
the traditional sense. They don't rate the top sights
to see nor will they tell you the colors of the bedspreads
in the hotels, how to say good morning in the local language,
how to hail a taxi or how long the city has been incorporated.
Rather these are reference books for
the active and curious traveller, written by locals,
often used by locals, and based on the popular Time
Out periodicals. What they do provide is a very
comprehensive selection of restaurants, for example,
from pubs, bistros and seafood shacks to those serving "cuisine" --
haute, nouvelle, and ethnic among them. Listings include
high-fashion boutiques and flea markets, art galleries
and art fairs, music and dance venues, museums and sports
events, bars and nightspots, castles and cathedrals,
neighborhoods and film festivals. Here you'll find opening
times and admission prices, and the telephone numbers
of the taxi companies. All levels of interest and all
budgets are accommodated.
