The Find Restaurants (SerpAPI) node uses this area to perform a Google Maps search 5. The Format Reply node processes the search results. It sorts them by rating, takes the top 5, and builds a detailed Markdown-formatted string 6. The Send to Telegram node delivers the final formatted message back to the user who made the request Setup - Telegram: Configure your credentials in the Telegram Trigger and Send to Telegram nodes - SerpAPI: Add your free or paid API key in the Find Restaurants (SerpAPI) HTTP Request node
