#I need to scrap a city to get some restaurants with a lot of categories

Currently, I'm scraping entire cities by selecting one category at a time, parsing the results, and inserting the data into our system.

I came across this thread, where someone suggests scraping smaller areas with multiple categories instead to reduce duplicates and cost.

Does this approach scale better in practice?

Also, is there a way to avoid retrieving places I’ve already scraped, maybe by providing known placeIds to skip or filter them out?
