Additionally, the purpose was to compare the level of satisfaction on the respective service qualities of company cafeteria and outside restaurant. The level of relative importance and satisfaction of service quality attributes are comparatively analyzed using the Important-Performance Analysis (IPA) of customers in order to provide basic information on the direction of marketing to efficiently operate company foodservice facilities. Restaurant service qualities were divided into the six factors of hygiene, convenience, food, environment, subsidiary services and food distribution process. The results revealed that the 'environment' of both company cafeteria and outside restaurant was needed to improve as quickly as possible. Additionally, it was found that the level of satisfaction was higher in the 'food' and 'environment' factors when using company cafeteria and outside restaurants, which would become an important attribute for the company foodservice recipients to use outside restaurants than using company cafeteria. Accordingly, it could be said that company cafeteria will need further control of the 'food' and 'environment' factors.

The purpose of the study is to propose architectural design standards of the cafeteria planning in educational facilities. In the spatial organization planning, the preferred location of the cafeteria is on the first floor and the types of the floor plan are followed by the forms and space structure of the school building. The area of the cafeteria is related to the size of seating area per person. The direction must sublate northern faced. In interior moving lines for service, the arrange of dining tables has to reflect distance of dining tables or location of pillars. The dining space should better have more than two entrances in terms of occupancy type and convenience. Thus the serving line has to be planed thoughtfully by various factors to avoid confusion caused in serving process.

The purposes of this study was to identify the level of satisfaction with the food quality in a company cafeteria located in Daejon. 400 people were given questionnaires, of which 341 questionnaires were returned for analysis (90.25% response rate). Our results show, 85.63% of customers eat at the cafeteria more than 3~4 times per week. 48.68% of people surveyed chose their meal based on the proximity when they enter the cafeteria. 39.59% said the most important factor for eating at the cafeteria was taste. 33.72% said it was quality. The type of food that was leftover the most was 'Guk' (soup). 52.20% said 'Guk' was leftover due to the awful taste. Food quality (34.60%) and taste (34.02%) required the most improvement according to those surveyed. Additionally, we divided food quality into 3 factors: 'sanitation & service', 'food', and 'menu composition'. People who marked down 'no other place to eat' was the reason they ate at the cafeteria also had the lowest satisfaction scores across all items (p<0.001). Improving the 'Guk' and 'meat' was rated as the most important criteria to improve satisfaction with leftover food. Unsurprisingly, the 'taste' of leftover food had the lowest satisfaction scores. Those who had the lowest quality satisfaction scores also wanted to improve 'taste', 'quality' and 'sanitation' the most (p<0.001). Based on these findings, the foodservice manager can increase the overall satisfaction with the cafeteria food by focusing on improving the taste, quality and sanitation of the food that it serves.

The 150 copies of questionnaire were completed by students who ate at the cafeteria of W college in Daejeon city. The SPSS 15.0 for Windows was used for a statistical analysis. The results are listed below; two factors were drawn as the improvement elements through the combination of the unsatisfactory items obtained by the descriptive statistics and the influential items by the multi-regression analysis. They are images and approach. In the 'image' category, there us a statistical difference between the present image and prefer image. The users prefer much brighter, warmer, newer, more gorgeous, more cheerful, more clear, more active, more comfortable, and more modern image of cafeteria.

This study examined that what attributes of student satisfaction are more important when students use university cafeterias. Factors that are considered to be more crucial when students use a cafeteria, such as menu, taste, price, and cleanliness, were tested. Based on the research of previous studies, it assumed that the selection attributes of students' cafeteria were menu, taste, price, and cleanliness. With 301 surveyed questionnaires, the study was carried out by AMOS 23.0 and the Structural Equation Model was used for examining the hypotheses as statistical method in this study. In consequence of the hypothesis test on the main effect, the factors such as the menu, taste, price and cleanliness were found to significantly affect satisfaction. Then, the moderating role of gender, age and allowance was analyzed. However, students' university cafeteria selection attributes differed depending on their allowance only. The path coefficients from menu to satisfaction were more significant in the group with a smaller allowance, while the path coefficient from price to satisfaction was more significant in the group with a larger allowance. The study analyzed that the effect of selection attribute of students' cafeteria on the satisfaction, and influence of students' allowance, and provide meaningful implications when they choose the attributes.
