08 Don’t Sit at a Table Right Away
While this isn’t seen as rude, sitting down at a table as soon as you enter a restaurant could actually steal away a vital chance of conversation from you. In Spain, it’s pretty much customary to sit at the bar before taking a seat at a table. Spanish bars are the highlights of every establishment. There, you can socialize with locals, fellow travelers, and even the staff. Speaking to locals will also introduce you to things you might not know about; things your brochure didn't mention. Also, if you’re lucky you might also get some free tapas.
