ikea

IKEA is the famous Swedish home products superstore known of its relatively inexpensive prices, modern designed furniture, and gigantic floor space.

Founded by Ingvar Kamprad in 1943, IKEA has spread its stores all across the world. If walked from beginning to end, each store "length" is in excess of a mile, filled with many themes and zones such as bathrooms, bedrooms, and kitchens.

Each IKEA store also has a cafeteria that serves customers its famous Swedish meatballs with cream sauce and lingonberry jam. In the early hours, the cafeteria also serves a very cheap semi-complete breakfast. Every location has a mini-store where customers can buy various Swedish treats like chocolate and cookies.
