Try this
- Name what each person’s local time makes comfortable: dinner, tea, a snack, or just company.
- Keep preparation independent unless cooking the same dish is something both people want and can arrange.
A worked example
“It’s dinner here and late afternoon there. I’ll eat while we talk; you can have tea or simply keep me company.”
An invented example to adapt, not a real exchange or a script you have to follow.
Before you leave it here
Do not treat matching plates or appetites as necessary. If eating on camera feels awkward, switch to audio or talk after the meal.
