Guesses for new set:
11. South Beach - we lived in Miami for 8 years when South Beach had a building moratorium on, and the place was almost a ghetto on elderly Jewish people from New York living in SRO's, single room occupancy. Then Miami Vice the television show hit the scene, and they lifter the building moratorium, and the whole place became just like the set of Miami Vice. We left Miami around that time, 1989
12. NOT six, because that would be an insect, NOT eight, because that would be an arachnid. So, I think the answer is TEN like lobsters and shrimp.
13. I probably don't know this one because I am not a toaster baking person, but Austrian breakfast pastry could maybe be strudel
14. Tunisia
15. dunno
16. Plymouth
17. Hungary
18. foot - it's foot is on its stomach
19. Of Mice and Men
20. Wine, as portrayed on Paris's Seine River during the opening ceremony of the 2024 summer Olympica, not to be confused with Michelangelo's Last Supper painting
