Seems reasonable to me. I generally prefer this approach of adding
more details to existing tags rather than inventing new top-level
tags, though I realise not everyone has this preference.

As for whether to use amenity=fast_food or amenity=cafe, I would
suggest using your best judgement based on the definition/examples on
the wiki.

Finally, shouldn't this be posted to the tagging@ list instead, next time?
