Tazio-
My husband was in international marketing for a time, and he would tell me about falling asleep over the late meals in Spain, though he loved tapas, which he thought was a very civilized custom.
He prided himself on his linguistic abilities and always tried to order in Spanish. One night as he finished what he thought was an impressive performance, the waiter said to him, in perfect English, "We have menus in English, Sir, if you'd like one."
