Re: "I wonder how many people cook and eat on the kitchen, vs..."
In my experience, if you have a party, most of the guests wind up in the kitchen, or near the kitchen when it fills up. There is an inevitable flow of food, ice, beverages, etc, and people swim upstream. Whenever possible I try to live in open plan spaces, so the kitchen is a part of the living space. It makes daily life more fun for the cook as well.

I grew up in a small house my great grandfather built. The kitchen was a room with one long countertop and the living room was attached in an open plan. The dining table straddled the two rooms and I often ate in the kitchen but watched the living room TV since it was all basically one room.
I wonder how many people cook and eat on the kitchen, vs how many people cook on the kitchen and then eat on the living room. Does it depend on the size of the kitchen maybe? Does it vary by country?
