Klokken er like over tolv. Gaten er stille nå. Butikkene stenger tidlig til lunsj. En liten restaurant er full av folk.
I Den dominikanske republikk er lunsj det store måltidet. Tallerkenen har ris, bønner, kylling og salat. Folk kaller den la bandera. Det betyr flagget.
Tiden er viktig, ikke maten. Klokken tre er maten borte. Spis når alle andre spiser. Ta så en liten kaffe og gå ut igjen.
That's the story.
