in spain it can sometimes go on for over an hour while people order coffee or desserts, we call it "Sobremesa" (overtable)
i heard that it angered some foreign restaurants when spaniards abroad did it
dont forget about the thousands of bacalhao dishes

>Nothing ever runs on time

i preffer at 9 but i know many people who dinner at half past 11

>dont forget about the thousands of bacalhao dishes
Oh, boy
Yeah we have all types of Bacalhau=Cod

>We eat potatoes with rice
I thought this was common everywhere.

we have "bacalao music" too

>that we keep our washing machines in kitchens
>that houses don't have AC here and dryers aren't common (americans)
>that we have on/off switches at the wall where you plug things in

>that we have on/off switches at the wall where you plug things in
thats pretty special, i'd say the obsession with fire safety is very british

>that we keep our washing machines in kitchens
Well that's very special.

rest is the same here.

For Americans it's buffling that everything is closed here on sundays.
