Dear All,

Does anybody know of either:

1) Studies conducted surrounding the role of food in social
gatherings?
2) Analysis of small social groups of loosely connected individuals?

Small group = 4-20 individuals
Loosely connected individuals = Friends of friends (or 'randoms')
who on the whole have not met before

"Analysis of" might include how frequently people participate in
such gatherings, the types of relationships that are formed as a
result, could be in public or private spaces – although my particular
application will be to restaurants


A nudge in the right direction for places to look would also be
appreciated.

Matthew
