I've often found that an intractable translation often succumbs to turning
the idea around. In this case, I'd turn the sentence inside out:
"The place I am at (is the most something)."
[Of course, this still has a "restaurant where we ate" problem, but we can
rephrase it as "my location (is the most something)."]
So we get {DaqwIj 'IH law' Hoch 'IH puS}, which was one of the phrases
already suggested.
