ABSTRACT

A cafeteria is a self-service restaurant frequented by both tourist and resident populations. There are two main types. The 'in-line' cafeteria consists of a single counter along which customers pass to make choices. The free-flow system, also known as the 'scramble system' or 'hollow square', has several counters each serving different meal items such as hot foods, sandwiches, salads, desserts and beverages.
