I recently upgraded MenuOrleans.com to Drupal 6 and wanted to show off my work.

The site uses taxonomy for Neighborhoods, Cuisines, and Features. And when you drill into those you get multiple views are presented on one page. So after choosing French Quarter you see the Map at the top, followed by restaurants with 4 or 5 star ratings, then teasers for all of the restaurants in that taxonomy.

Before the update I was using image nodes for the menu images while the restaurants were hard coded html in pages. I had been playing around with my site in a VM and it seems all of the modules have matured enough to work the way I need them, so I made the switch to CCK.

Currently I'm using CCK with ImageField, Views, Location, GMAP, FiveStar, ImageCache, Lightbox, Boost, and others. Unfortunately the theme I am using is not quite D6 complete. So I am not able to add blocks to content etc. Looks like I might need to learn how to theme.

Take a look and let me know what you think. http://menuorleans.com/

And if any of you live in the New Orleans area, please send me menus!

See if Pathauto can transliterate some of your paths like this one "Bar%20%2526%20Grill"
The Transliteration module might be useful for uncommon punctuation.

Also, it is common practice to transliterate spaces to hyphens in path names to avoid potential problems with SEOs or internal logic. Any cons out there?

I tried this one:

Seems the titles are not inline. Is it on purpose?

It looks like in the grid view the teasers are vertically centered. I need to fix that.
