Main search mode

Find dinner near a postcode, then inspect where the data came from.

Search the indexed database by postcode, then run a live Google Places text query like a restaurant name or cuisine against that same postcode and compare the returned places directly on the map.

Live Google Places text search
A normal search now runs the verified Google query shape automatically and imports the returned places into the index: Thai food within 100m of SW19 1QS, UK
Duplicate query submissions are replayed from Postgres instead of sending the same Google API request again.

Data provenance

The Mapbox postcode panel shows the search centre plus either the indexed venue set or the live Google Places response, depending on which search you last ran. The admin harvest flow still stores canonical venues plus raw source rows so every card can show exactly which datasource contributed to it.

Run a postcode search to inspect indexed sources.
