Re: European Sammelsurium 3 (none / 1)

They must have a different way of working in Bulgaria if men routinely go to bars at lunchtimes!

I think Borisov's comment applies more to bosses, or the image of bosses.

Re: European Sammelsurium 3 (none / 0)

I was just wondering if maybe bar has different meanings in different countries. For example, in Italy, as far as I know, during the day you go to the bar for coffee and aperitivo in the evening. Whereas here in Switzerland a bar is a place that opens in the evening and you go there primarily for alcoholic beverages.

In BG most bars are multipurpose. Coffee as well as beer or rakia (moonshine hooch). Rakia is generally taken with food as a digestif.
