Radar Search Service allows you to search for up to 200 Places at once, but with less detail than is typically returned from a Text Search or Nearby Search request. The search response will include up to 200 Places, identified only by their geographic coordinates and reference. You can send a Place Details request for more information about any of them.
@return [Array<Spot>] @param [String,Integer] lat the latitude for the search @param [String,Integer] lng the longitude for the search @param [Hash] options @option options [Integer] :radius (1000)

A term to be matched against all content that Google has indexed for this Spot, including but not limited to name, type, and address, as well as customer reviews and other third-party content.
@option options [Integer] :minprice
Restricts results to only those places within the specified price range. Valid values range between 0 (most affordable) to 4 (most expensive), inclusive.
@option options [Integer] :maxprice
Restricts results to only those places within the specified price range. Valid values range between 0 (most affordable) to 4 (most expensive), inclusive.
@option options [Boolean] :opennow
Retricts results to those Places that are open for business at the time the query is sent. Places that do not specify opening hours in the Google Places database will not be returned if you include this parameter in your query. Setting openNow to false has no effect.
@option options [Boolean] :zagatselected
Restrict your search to only those locations that are Zagat selected businesses. This parameter does not require a true or false value, simply including the parameter in the request is sufficient to restrict your search. The zagatselected parameter is experimental, and only available to Places API enterprise customers.
