Using data inside an array of objects

Question

I have an array called [self.places objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]; that I am trying to output into a table. The array is full of objects but I want to use the data inside the object whats the best way to assign them to an object? The data inside the array is as follows:

<Place:eXMSFqDg7B> {
    Location = "<PFGeoPoint: 0x6887480>";
    addressline1 = "address line 1";
    addressline2 = "address line 2";
    agerestrictions = "18+";
    email = "test@aol.com";
    image = "<PFFile: 0x6887af0>";
    name = "Rain NightClub";
    phone = 0123456789;
    postcode = BT11TG;
    type = Club;
}
2012-04-17 00:29:59.501 ClubsNIparse[3517:f803] <Place:95KvPCrSY1> {
    Location = "<PFGeoPoint: 0x6888330>";
    addressline1 = "address line 1";
    addressline2 = "address line 2";
    agerestrictions = "18+";
    email = "test@aol.com";
    image = "<PFFile: 0x6888950>";
    name = "Box NightClub";
    phone = 0123456789;
    postcode = BT11TG;
    type = Club;
}
2012-04-17 00:29:59.502 ClubsNIparse[3517:f803] <Place:6AxpfrY0DZ> {
    Location = "<PFGeoPoint: 0x6889260>";
    addressline1 = "address line 1";
    addressline2 = "address line 2";
    agerestrictions = "18+";
    email = "test@aol.com";
    image = "<PFFile: 0x6889880>";
    name = Laverys;
    phone = 0123456789;
    postcode = BT11TG;
    type = Club;
}

Thanks.

EDIT ---

As suggested a created an NSObject and set the fields respectively but received this error: 2012-04-17 11:09:08.363 ClubsNIparse[4906:f803] -[PFObject Location]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x6b4e4a0 2012-04-17 11:09:08.364 ClubsNIparse[4906:f803] * Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[PFObject Location]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x6b4e4a0' * First throw call stack: (0x19d5052 0x1f89d0a 0x19d6ced 0x193bf00 0x193bce2 0x13434 0xc01e0f 0xc02589 0xbeddfd 0xbfc851 0xba7301 0x19d6e72 0x1a992d 0x1b3827 0x139fa7 0x13bea6 0x1c730c 0xb79530 0x19a99ce 0x1940670 0x190c4f6 0x190bdb4 0x190bccb 0x251f879 0x251f93e 0xb68a9b 0x2722 0x2695) terminate called throwing an exceptionCurrent

You can use it with following

NSString* strAddress = [[self.places objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]valueForKey:@"addressline1"];

After giving indexPath.row use valueForKey: method to retrive value from the object. do it for all value and you will get it.

To print in tableview write above code in CellForRowAtIndexPath

 NSString* strAddress = [[self.places objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]valueForKey:@"addressline1"];
 cell.textLabel.text = strAddress;

Using this code all address1 data will show inside the tableview row
