communal dinning in restaurants? Should we have them in surrey?

  Communal dinning started in a restaurant downtown Vancouver. The restaurant has  put a long wide table for everyone to sit in. Most people get amused by what they see but the crowds do not interact. people find that sitting near or beside a stranger you will socialize but sometimes people like to eat individually or just with group of friends alone from other people. As this restaurant puts a long table where everyone sits to socialize it could get tighter and uncomfortable to most people. How would people that cant stand tight spaces sit in a table that is crowded with chairs. there are some minor problems because families like to sit together as a group not crowed with strangers, but for the younger people that like to communicate and socialize with one and another. It also gets people to bond together and engage to opportunities with each other.
 
  The problem is that the fact that u don't get to eat enjoy your dinner without anyone looking at you because people like there privates and personal space. So far in Vancouver there are 16 restaurants that have the long table for communal dinning.
Long tables draw crowds in Vancouver, but do they interact?
Salty tongue- in Vancouver  
 
  I think communal dinning in a long table is a bad idea because as a family its nice if your sitting alone together instead of sitting with strangers but there are good thing that you can do sitting on a long table is that you communicate and socialize with strangers but also have a good time. Which will make the restaurant/ pub popular because of how many people talk about how much fun it is to dine and engage to people. This would be a good idea but i think it would be better if it only stayed in Vancouver because in surrey most people go to restaurants with a group/friends and mostly families. This depends on the people themselves but I think they should just leave it as it is because if people want to dine with strangers they could connect the tables together but if not its should stay as a regular sized table for families or friends that could eat alone and at their own time.

    Hi Merna! Good information in the article! I think you shold re-read your article before you post, for mistakes like capitalization and punctuation- theres a couple of mistake. Also remember not to use text-language in formal writing. I think you could it would be nice if you made three paragraphs at a decent size, instead of having two larger paragraphs and a small one in the middle. But good job in getting the information; it was really helpful and also adding a picture! I agree with your opinion that dining with strangers should be kept at certain restuarants and pubs. Keep up the good work!

    Good job Merna. i was really interested in this paragraph because you really gave evidence for your answers.I really liked how you added a picture that made me want to read the paragraph because i like to see pictures rather than seeing just paragraph after paragraph. I like how you added your link so i could read on after you finished your paragraph.
    Good job Merna
