What is the concept of 'Tapas and a Nap'?

Adam 0:31
I'm good. It's Friday, and we're trying to do a thing where we usually go out to dinner every Friday, but we're trying to switch it up and do lunch every Friday.
Dax 0:40
Oh, okay. Just you and Liz. A little Friday afternoon lunch.
Adam 0:44
A little siesta.
Dax 0:49
Oh, really? That's after lunch?
Adam 0:51
A siesta is a nap that people take after lunch.
Dax 0:53
Oh, that's the nap.
Adam 0:53
I think it was invented in Spain. Yes. And it's literally like a real thing. Like everything just shuts down for two hours.
Dax 0:59
Like the whole town just shuts down. That's so cool. I wish we did that. I mean, I can't really, I wouldn't want to take a nap, but it sounds fun.
Adam 1:05
I'm not someone that really gets sleepy after eating and like late afternoon, but so many people do that. I'm just convinced there's some biological thing where we're supposed to do that for the most part.
Dax 1:18
So I thought it was, I didn't know it was Spain. I thought it was like Italians and they all just ate like a ton of pasta and then I get sleepy after pasta. So I could imagine wanting to take a nap, like a big baguette. I don't know.
Adam 1:28
Or is that France? Baguette's French. You're really confused about Europe.
Dax 1:31
I'm really confused.
Adam 1:32
You have no idea what's going on over there.
Dax 1:34
What do people eat in Spain? I have no idea what they eat in Spain.
Adam 1:37
I'm imagining in your head, you're imagining Europe, and it's just a table with pasta and a baguette. And pizza. And pizza, yeah.
Dax 1:46
American pizza.
Adam 1:48
Yeah. What do Spanish people eat? Spanish food is really good. We eat a lot of it here. Like tapas?
Dax 1:55
Oh, tapas.
Adam 1:57
What's a tapa? Tapas isn't really a thing, really. It just means a lot of small plates, which is a great way of eating. Like they just give you like 10 different things. Yeah, it's kind of like Ethiopian food. I mean, same concept where you're just getting a lot of things. Yeah, but it's not like stuff you dip in other stuff. It's all standalone.

Why is the flu lasting longer this year?

Dax 2:14
Oh, gotcha. Do they like fried rice? No, that's Asian. Wild rice? What am I thinking about with rice and Spanish people?
Adam 2:24
Yeah, there's that famous dish with the seafood. I'm forgetting the term now.
Dax 2:31
It's probably something different because I didn't know there was seafood involved. There's a lot of seafood in Spanish food. Yeah, that makes sense.
Adam 2:36
Spain on the ocean.
Dax 2:38
Paella. Paella. No, never heard of it. Sounds awesome. Well, I don't like seafood, but there's rice. I like rice a lot. Yes, there's rice in it.
Adam 2:48
I forgot you don't eat meat for a second.
Dax 2:51
I do eat a lot of rice.
Adam 2:52
I love rice. So my favorite thing, I mean, Oh no, this isn't the thing I'm thinking of. Isn't, isn't, um, Hang on. I got to look this up because it's driving me crazy. Ceviche. I'm thinking of ceviche.
Dax 3:05
Ceviche.
Adam 3:06
Do you know what ceviche is? I do not. Okay. Well, ceviche is raw. It's kind of like sushi. It's like a mix of different raw fishes or like just stuff like that. But they use a ton of lime and citrus and the citrus acid cooks fish. the fish and get this like nice, like tangy, do she like flavor, but it's like, you know, technically cooked and that's interesting. I think it's like, it literally cooks it.
Dax 3:31
Like they don't use heat, just the citric acid.
Adam 3:34
Yeah. It's like a form. It like, it's like a version of it being cooked. Yeah. And it's interesting. the history behind is interesting because i recently understood this so that comes from peru and you think peru south america you have like an image in your head but there's a there was some point in history where a ton of japanese people moved to peru And their cuisine is crazy interesting because of that. So ceviche is like sushi, but like South American style. Oh, but South American. Interesting because Japanese people moved. That's so cool. Yeah. And now they have the whole weird dedicated cuisine, but it's from that. So there you go. A little fun fact for you.
Dax 4:11
Is paella actually a thing though?
Adam 4:14
that is a thing it's a Spanish dish and I don't like it because they just put like my my perception of it is they're just like let me just take every possible sea creature and just throw it in the pot and put rice with it like they just put everything I don't even know what I don't even know if there's like an official set of ingredients but it'll be like clams and shrimp and like oysters like just like
