So what is everybody having for a Sunday dinner?
Traditional or not, stick it in here.

Today I’m doing Lamb shanks.
The kids are having Chicken.

Every Saturday afternoon we get chocolate-filled pastries. That's most of the fancy eating all year.
Ross will tell you more about Oliebollen, maybe.

In Holland do you have what would be considered a traditional Sunday lunch. In the U.K. it would generally mean a roasted meat eg Beef, Chicken, Pork and Lamb with veg and potatoes and Yorkshire pudding with Beef. We don’t have one every Sunday but it is a tradition for many families.

In certain parts of England dinner can mean what you call lunch and what you call dinner we might call having your tea.
I put dinner to cover all bases. As it happen me and the wife are having the lamb at around 6pm as I’m slow cooking it.

My parents even disagree with hot food for lunch on holidays like come on.
Whenever I went to Greece or Turkey with my family my breakfast consisted of sausages an egg bacon and a pancake, like, more typical English breakfast. And I love it.

We don't usually do anything fancy food-wise except for things like Christmas, New Year's and sometimes also Easter.
We eat oliebollen at New Year's and it's the most devilish sweet food ever: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oliebol

I put dinner to cover all bases. As it happen me and the wife are having the lamb at around 6pm as I’m slow cooking it.
I hate tea.

I don’t mean as in drinking tea. In certain parts of England if you say “I’m having my tea” it means what you would call dinner.

I think I’ve had those in Amsterdam. Very nice as well although I’m not a massive dessert fan.

So when you eat your roast potatoes and a steak you call it 'having tea'? :pointing:

Morning = breakfast
12 to 2 pm = dinner
4 to 6 pm = tea time
Night time = supper

Anyone who doesn't agree is a pretentious twat.
