We found that the portions in the restaurants are large unless in some cases you may ask for a smaller portion. Usually a plate of food would have two pieces of meat, chicken or fish, a starch such as potatoes and noodles, vegetables, garnishes and gravy or sauce. The meal would have been preceded by an appetizer, a salad and bread.
Yes, you would think that the population all wore large or extra large or xxxlg. I noticed that there were lots of thin folks and medium sizes. Likely they don't eat quite like the meals that are served up in the nice restaurants. Most people walk a lot of the time and climbing all those steps to get to your suite takes a lot of energy.
We were impressed with the general use of linens, porcelain and glass rather than the north American style of bear tables and paper and plastic.

I often think about why people in other parts of the world are thinner. Especially considering their food is pretty rich and tastey. I think the walking has a lot to do with it. In Houston, TX there are people from many countries... But we all seem to eat very similar diets. I don't know? Genetics?
