Hi all, I am conducting a research about the dining tables. I am searching out if they lose their essence by the contemporary life styles in which people don't have so much time for cooking meals, work for long periods, eat out often. I also will conduct a survey about the situation of the frequency this dining ritual in people's lives. I have been searching for two weeks. I would like to learn if you also know any references for this subject. Thanks in advance, Esra.
