search_dishes300 tokFind specific dishes on restaurant menus across India: item name, price in INR, veg/non-veg, menu section, and the restaurant (name, area, url). E.g. q "paneer tikka" city "bengaluru" max_price 300 veg true, or "masala dosa in indiranagar". Covers restaurants whose menus we hold (growing daily); if nothing is found, fall back to search_restaurants with the dish words.
