Ah to be in a country that has a food culture again.Not to be a food snob, but there is definitely a way to eating in Spain. Granted it usually involves the back leg of Wilbur, but there's still a life that revolves around food.
The goal this week was to see if I was capable of doing the normal Spain dinner hours - which essentially dictates a 10 o'clock start time - that's 10:00 PM. Keeping in mind, that my bedtime on a school night is 10:00 PM. They do have an opt-out clause - otherwise known as Tapas - which are bar snacks served anytime after 6PM at a local bar.
So if you just want a simple meal - have some Tapas; if you're doing the big night out - wait until 10:00PM. The final report was that I could handle it - although it did take several days to get used to it. The trick is realizing that you don't need to go out to eat every night - usually just the weekends - and plan on having a big lunch.
