Socializing McDonalds

I went (by mistake/chance) to a Mc here in Stockholm and i noticed this huge tables where a lot of people can stay and chat. I'm not used to see in a Mc so much social space. Usually everyone has it's own chair and the tables are for 2, 4, and i don't know if bigger. Check out how big they are and how this changes the way people interact. Actually i think is the other way around. Because of cultural differences, they designed the tables to respond to a predominant need here.



And the lights were different, and everything was made much more personal, not so much American fast food type.
