Wednesday, September 4, 2024 • Duration 01:02:59

Let's be honest, catching a train can be confusing, especially for those of us who aren't accustomed to public transportation.

Café Culture or Why You Have To Eat Your Food in a Specific Order—Food Month

Do you sit at a table and then order, or order first and then sit at a table? What about that age-old rule of no cappuccinos after 11am?

New Cover!

Wednesday, July 10, 2024 • Duration 11:20

Thanks for listening to this mini-sode! A full-length episode will be out on Friday, and next week we will return to our normally-scheduled Wednesday episodes. We had intended to be back in full-force today, but we returned from the States an unintentional day late due to canceled flights, so the jet lag is still hitting hard.

This month will focus on restaurant etiquette, how to order, what's okay and not okay to do, and even what kinds of drinks to expect at every Italian bar.

As always, thank you all so much for listening! If you have any questions, please reach out at onlyabag.com!
