In Britain, the average wealthy family often has four meals a day, namely breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner. Breakfast time is mostly between 7 am and 9 am. The main foods are porridge, ham and eggs and bread with cream or marmalade. Lunch is about 13 o'clock, usually cold meat and cold dishes (made of potatoes, cucumbers, tomatoes, carrots, lettuce, beets and so on). Drink tea at lunch, and generally don't drink alcohol. The refreshment is about 17: , mainly tea, supplemented by cakes. Dinner is mostly around 19: 3, which is the main meal of the day and often drinks alcohol. In England, people eat more lettuce. In the north of England, dinner is just tea, and only the fried fish and potato chips in the fourth meal are called "dinner". Most people pay more attention to three meals a day, namely breakfast, lunch and afternoon tea. Only a little cold dishes are prepared for dinner.
Not good at cooking
Generally speaking, English people are not good at cooking. In their opinion, the advantage and disadvantage of housewives lies in whether they are good at opening various cans, not in whether they can cook. Therefore, simple fast food is the most popular in Britain. For many British people, fried fish is a high-class dish. Restaurants, restaurants, restaurants and other catering industries in Britain are mostly run or "cooked" by foreigners, and the menus and decorative texts in restaurants are mostly in French or Italian. Therefore, British people who often eat at home often feel that they are in a foreign country when they enter various restaurants.
Tea-loving country
English people love tea and regard drinking tea as a necessary and indispensable enjoyment every day. As an English folk song sings, "My highest wish is a good cup of tea." For the British, any time is a time for "drinking tea". Whether in the morning, afternoon or evening, or during the break in the morning and afternoon, the most important thing for people is to drink tea. Even during every meal or late at night, it is always inseparable from drinking tea. It is said that after cheap Indian tea replaced China tea in the last century, before instant coffee appeared, the total consumption of tea by British people accounted for a quarter of the world's total tea production.
Bars
In Britain, pubs and bars are important places for people to drink and have fun. Because most British people don't want to drink at home, if they want to drink beer or other alcohol, they will go to small hotels or bars. According to the traditional custom, a copper bar is installed at the foot of the counter in many small hotels, so that customers can step on it with one foot to chat with the hotel owner or wine salesman. The English word "bar" originally meant "bar", and now it has become the international synonym for "bar". British people come here to drink, always in order to eliminate loneliness and seek happiness. Some people often just buy a small glass of beer and sit in a bar for one night. Every Friday evening, the pub is always crowded with many people who spend the weekend. After one batch left, another batch came. Until late at night, the small hotel is still in the smoke and alcohol, and the noise is endless.
