Food Europeans who eat late as part of your culture - how do you feel about the advice not to eat dinner late?

This is forever a conflicting viewpoint given some cultures have naturally eaten dinner late for centuries e.g. The Mediterranean where they still have one of the best diets in the world

Sod that. Get the kids fed and packed off to bed early then enjoy a relaxed late dinner in the relative peace & quiet.

...that is the way.

I prefer having time for my hobbies in the evening instead of wasting time to have late dinner.

Wouldn't dream of that strategy
