And regardless of whether people on this forum think this comment detracts from their city's hipness (not that it should*, but hey... knock yourself out), I am definitely not the only who has noticed.

*People in London and Berlin generally dine earlier than people in Madrid and Buenos Aires. Does that make London and Berlin less cool cities?
Not at all. I mean try finding a restaurant open after 11 in Paris. It's pretty tough.

Most people in North America, at least in its big cities tend to eat later. At the very least logistically, it's almost impossible to eat earlier.

People go out for drinks post work, 5-7. At least where I'm from. They don't dine then.

The outliers are really Spain, Argentina etc. Most places are fairly consistently 7-9+
