Answer 1

You can create a method in your ItemizedOverlay class to add all restaurant objects. For this, your ItemizedOverlay will need to have an internal ArrayList bound to the overlay by overriding the createItem method. It might also help to subclass OverlayItem for your restaurant map items. Hope that helps.
