The "drunch" is becoming relevant as the latest gastronomic trend that is on everyone's lips. This combination of "dinner" (dinner in English) and "lunch" (lunch in English) has become a modern ritual that takes place in the afternoon and mixes recipes in mini format while inviting you to socialize and enjoy during afterwork.
The concept of "drunch" is an evolution of the traditional snack-dinner, offering a more sophisticated and shared culinary experience. Usually, the hours of this gastronomic event range from 6:00 p.m. to approximately 9:00 p.m.
The drunch portions are small and are made up of mini bites of succulent but informal recipes, ideal for sharing with friends and colleagues. In addition, it is highlighted that alcohol is welcome and should pair with the type of food, offering a more pleasant experience.
Beer, wine or cocktails accompany what is known as the drunch fusion menu, which mixes salty and sweet flavors in portions that can be eaten in one bite so as not to interrupt the conversation. This event is presented as an informal and fun ritual that seeks to replace the traditional "afternoon" after work, for example.
The drunch offers an early dinner option that combines lunch and dinner in a single event, with the intention of encouraging socialization while enjoying Spanish cuisine in small bites.
With the arrival of good weather, the terraces of large cities become the perfect setting to enjoy this new gastronomic concept, which is gaining popularity in Spanish establishments and which benefits cohesion between friends or co-workers.
In addition to the culinary variety and the informal atmosphere, nutritionists highlight the fact of having dinner earlier as an advantage of drunch, which allows for better digestion and avoids the negative effects of going to bed immediately after eating.
