And IMO out of touch as well. Therefore it is always a Frommer's for where we are going to form a general outline. My wife and I consider ourselves ying/yang travellers, one night it is the white tablecloth restaurant, the next it is the local dive, two nights at the Ritz, two at the HI. Frommer's seems to cater to our swings.

Fill in the Frommer gaps w/knowledge from FT, chowhound.com, friends and my travel agent.
