The sounds create a sense of inclusion as it is a warm, happy and welcoming atmosphere. This welcoming atmosphere draws you in and makes you want to sit down and also take part in the meal time conversations that are happening all over the restaurant. Coffee machines are constantly on the go, creating a homely feel and the sound of cutlery and plates indicate that people are eating – making you feel the need to order something to so you can feel a part of the culinary experience. Some people are sitting at tables with groups of friends while other people sit at tables by themselves working on their laptops or reading books. There are a few romantic couples sitting at the tables too.
First, it is suggested that an exploratory and/or empirical study based upon server efficiency in casual restaurants be conducted so that managers will be able to accurately forecast meal duration, taking into account meal period, party size, and server efficiency. Additionally, a study should be conducted to investigate the impact of atmospheric factors on meal duration, such as current volume inside of the restaurant, temperature, lighting and music, and the psycho- logical connection that customers feel they have with their server. Finally, research is lacking on the impact of wine service on meal duration. As identified by Wansink et al. (2007), the consumption of wine during a meal as thought to increase the consumption of food during a meal.
Abstract Whether it is a house, apartment, bungalow or some other dwelling, homes are very important to the people who live in them. The architectural design of these homes often times can affect how we behave and how we relate to others. This study focuses on how the architectural design of houses impacts social behavior. It looks to symbolic interactionism to examine this topic further and finds that, people who live in homes that have been designed to take into consideration their personal preferences will be happier because, architecture reflects and expresses self, architectural symbols affect our environment, and designed physical buildings act as agents that invite self-reflection. To examine this topic, research of existing sources
3. Social uncertainties: the impact of the public on the project has a significantly influence a project’s outcome. For example, resistance from the community to the use of overseas construction workers. Moreover, the construction of a building may have adverse social consequences due to its particular nature and location.

al. 2007, stated that When comparing restaurants with other factors of the food chain (such as distributors and manufacturers) restaurants have the great impact on food safety, where food is processed. People consider restaurants as key end point where food properties can be tested before being processed so the maximum safety is ensured at this stage. The consequences of the lack of food safety standards in restaurants will cause reduced sales (after 18 weeks of the scandal in jack of the box, the restaurant reported 160$million losses), legal responsibilities (where the government may force restaurants to close for a period), the loss of the whole business and a negative publicity. Restaurants risk to lose customers if there was a lack of food safety standards; customers will shift to safer restaurant to purchase food from, or they can purchase from grocery stores ready to eat foods.
Indeed, available data does not make it possible to distinguish, for example, whether the lack of contact is imposed or chosen. In the built environment the means with which architecture encourages social connection through designing environments that promote contact with others will be interrogated. It should follow that the perception of a public place as welcoming and inviting have a direct ability to affect the quality of the user experience, and assist in promoting a vibrant public realm. An individual experiences the built environment through his senses and as such those senses form the primary portal with which space is experienced. How the architect manipulates a space with different architectural elements would thus have a consequential impact on the senses.
CHAPTER 1 The Problem and Its Background Introduction Environmental sustainability becomes a trend in the restaurant industry; green practices in the foodservice are now more popular to the consumers. Exert efforts from the different government agencies particularly the department of environment and natural resources to protect our natural resources.

It is only proper that people take care of their environment by having green practices, and the restaurant
