So we can get a bonus from dining near a bonfire with our friends and that is great but how about some benefit from dining inside. I have always had my dining table outside, its a waste of space to have it inside. But what if we got some benefit? Perhaps increased energy from each food item (pretty lousy bonus really) it could depend on how the room is decorated perhaps, some items making the meal more relaxing and so increasing energy, others giving fep bonus or hunger modifier? And the great hall could allow bonfires to built inside for the epic feasts.
Also, cushions for chairs that give an energy boost.
