Introducing Dining Delicacy

About us:
It seems that people, just about everywhere, will eat and eat and then eat some more. Most know there is a price to pay not just money related, all those extra calories have to go somewhere too and yet they still cannot resist that second piece of pumpkin pie. Dining in or dining out refers to having your meal at home or having them in the restaurants. According to research, as the society gets more modernized, people become busier and food becomes in handy. Restaurants are flooded with customers almost every breakfast, lunch and dinner time. Eating out has been a more popular choice all around the world, in Brunei particularly, lately than it has ever been. Many chooses to eat out because of so many different reasons but the common one is that they do not have time to cook for the whole family or even for themselves. We have conducted a survey to see the trends among the younger generations in this country that prefer to dine out.

2ND Week Report

This week, two of our members (Fatin Nadiah @ Hanisah bte Hj Md Haranadi (11T0049) & Hjh Nur Syazana Amani Hj Suut (11T0204)) have dropped UniBridge due to sufficient points to enter UBD January in-take. A new member, Saidatun Nadzirah Mohd Yusof (11T0141), has joined us this week summing up to eight members altogether. We have decided to change our survey topic from Smoking to Dine In, Dine Out. We figured that the topic is more interesting and we have more objectives for this new topic than the previous one. As the society get more modernized, people become busier and food becomes in handy. Restaurants are flooded with customers almost every breakfast, lunch and dinner time. Most people prefer to dine out rather than dining in at home. But there are also some who still prefer to eat at home. This survey will be conducted to show the trends among the younger generations in this country that prefer to dine out. The questionnaires will be posted in the next report.

In this modern society, most people prefer to dine out rather than dining in at home. For this assignment, my group has agreed to conduct a survey to show the trends among the younger generations in this country that prefer to dine out. This week, since everyone still is in the festive fever, we have decided that everyone in this group has to come up with at least 3 questions on this topic that we have chose. Everyone has to present their idea during our group meeting and the best questions will be chosen as our questionnaires to the survey. We were only able to have a group discussion once and only for an hour this week, that is on Monday, during lunch time. And fortunately, we were able to wrap up everything and came up with the questionnaires for our survey (shown at the end of our weekly progress report)
