Proposal
This tag can be used to describe the available serving systems in a restaurant, fast food joint, cafe or other kind of place that sells food for direct consumption.
The tag will be serving_system:a=b, where a is the serving system type, and b is the tag's value (see #Values below)
Rationale
Although it is largely irrelevant to specify the serving system of a restaurant, there are some unusual serving systems that are worth tagging.
Tagging
It can be used with most places that offers food, including amenity=restaurant, amenity=fast_food and amenity=cafe.
Values
The values are yes, no and service times, where
- yes means "there is such a serving system in this place";
- no means "there is not..";
- and service times uses opening_hours=* syntax to represent when this option is available (it should be used only when this option is not available whenever the place is open).
Types of Serving System

TODO serving_system:buffet=* Buffet

TODO serving_system:rodizio=* Rodízio

Food in vast amount and vast variations placed in the middle of the table, guests help themselves at will.
Other types
I cannot hope to possibly enumerate all present and future serving systems, therefore the key value of this tag is declared open-ended, i.e. use other values as needed.
