Have you ever been to IHOP?
Even though it stands for international house of pancakes, I donât know if there any out of the US or not. I do know youâve been over here. Yâall did 100% fantastic job on your pancakes, enjoy in good health.
They mustâve decided Sweden, Netherlands, France, British Isles, all have too much competition w their own type of pancake,
From wiki

Because yall have scones all over the place, my favorite food!!
I have a question. When I was 15, I spent several months studying English literature in the British Isles and Ireland . Including Oxford and the Yeats school of poetry in Sligo. With everywhere in between. Every day at 4 oâclock or so we had tea, we had real tea and scones.
Now it seems like I hear yâall talking about tea talking about what I would call supper your evening meal. Question, do you sit down in the afternoon and have tea with cookies or something sweet? Or do you just wait and have supper which some people call dinner, and it seems like some of you from England are calling it tea, for your evening meal? Thanks for answering and maybe I got the whole thing wrong. Have a nice day.

So⊠In the refined society afternoon tea is what you experienced, tea and biscuits, cake etc⊠They might call main meals breakfast lunch and dinner.
In the northern areas mostly we call dinner, TEA. I actually would say breakfast, dinner and tea. Tea being the main evening meal⊠We wouldnât have afternoon tea really these days⊠We might have elevenses which is tea and biscuits or cake.
Itâs so confusing, but tea and tea are both liquid and a meal! Sorry.
Edited: though Iâm a Londoner for 22 years Iâm born and bred Midlands and lived in the north west for three years⊠Explains my use of thisâŠ

Yes, so the slump between breakfast and dinner where you might need a snack to fortify your Victorian heart. 
Letâs face it, we make an event out of wind and air over hereâŠ

Never been to IHOP, and for what I know we donât have it here.
Wanted to go to Applebeeâs last time we where in the US because I thought they sold healthy foods (They where located in a place where they had a lot of fastfood places)
My friend laughed for like five minutes and then said, well I think they might have fried apple piesâșïž
And then we went to Pizza Hut instead.
For next time I have McDonaldâs, Wendyâs and Applebeeâs on my to try list. I guess I can add IHOP too.
I know McDonaldâs sounds strange but itâs a nice and pretty cheap way to get local foods. The meny is different in every country.

Swedes does something similar.
In the western farm county (VĂ€stra Götaland) where I live, we have breakfast, or morning coffee, elevenses or 11 oâclock coffee, dinner (which other call lunch is the mainmeal and eaten sometimes between 12-14 oâclock, the factory workers usually have a dinner break which is between 13-14)
And then we have afternoon coffee at 16.00 and evening Fika (supper) somewhere around 18-20 oâclock.
I automatically thinks about Hyacinth (Keeping up appearance tv show) candle light supper when I hear the word supper.
