The European country is known for its late night eating culture, the average time for an evening meal is past 9PM.
One of the reasons for that is the working day across Spain which has a history of going on way into the evening.
But recently the second deputy minister of Spain called this ‘madness’, saying eating so late and working late isn’t good for work-life balance.
We speak to a restaurant owner and the CEO of digital agency that offers flexible working to talk about working culture and discuss how likely it is that Spain will change its habits.
