HI readers,
Something interesting about living in Spain:
People here love lunch. It often starts at 3 PM and lasts until dinner. In summer, work stops at 2 PM and lunch and a mandatory nap are often the only activities left in the day. The nap is mandatory because the "lunch" is a 3-course affair that begins with paella and ends with tarta de queso (figure it out). And coffee. And free shots of weird herbal liquor.
In my observation, this Spanish tradition varies from the New York City restaurant experience in several important ways:
1. Spanish restaurants are affordable.
2. Actually, Spanish restaurants are stupid cheap.
3. For example, a glass of wine in a Spanish restaurant costs $1 and comes with free food.
4. 3-course Spanish lunch costs $10-$15.
5. 3-course brunch at Jane NYC costs $100-$1000.
6. Jane has better Eggs Benedict.
7. I do love Eggs Benedict.
8. I would be hungry right now except I had 3-course Saturday lunch. For $13.
