イートインが増えましたね。昼時は1人でお昼食べてる人で満席。3時ころだとお茶してる人で満席。コンビニ以外でもイオンとか大き目のスーパーはイートインが増えていて午前中からお昼にかけての時間帯には高齢者をよく見かけます。もっとイートインが増えれば、おしゃべりのために病院にいる高齢者が移動するんじゃないかな。
You'll find eating area at many "conbini" (convenient stores) and also large supermarkets. It's literally convenient to eat lunch and snacks or have coffee in the afternoon. Conbini coffee are quite good with reasonable price (100yen for small size) and they sell good dessert too. Conbini also have a deep fryer and sell freshly-fried food at the cashier counter. It's really tempting.
