Ever made a friend over a cup of coffee? A new Restaurant in Serpong at Mall Alam Sutera unit 88, Tangerang aims to make a social experience out of drinking coffee. Aptly named 6 Degrees, according to the theory: 'Six degrees of separation' is the theory that everyone and everything is six or fewer steps away, by way of introduction, from any other person in the world, so that a chain of "a friend of a friend" statements can be made to connect any two people in a maximum of six steps. It was originally set out by Frigyes Karinthy and popularized by a play written by John Guare, and is a current reality at this restaurant designed by a Polish, Singaporean based architect, with his Indonesian partner.
