I agree

How do you know how long her shower should be?

We will hardly have any warm water left tonight after she showers again for nearly 1 hour.

OMG just turn your hot water heater up. Stop talking about "warm water"

Well that's your problem. It's not the showering often it's the 1 hr. She needs to find another way to decompress. So talk gently and away that you totally get the need to get the smell off etc and how it must be a good relaxing thing after a long day but that there is not enough water for everyone and to keep it shorter.

Yup. Tell her to soak in the tub instead.

What I do not understand is why constantly shower if she has to go back to the restaurant again tomorrow where she will end up smelling like food all over again?

She does not make sense at all.

I call troll. Either that, or OP has no sense of smell. Or maybe OP does have a great sense of smell, and gets a contact high from sniffing the delicious food odors all over the roommate's body and doesn't want that to end.
Troll, I think.

Not a troll.

Ugh. I couldn't go to sleep smelling of food in my hair. Now it doesn't have to be a long shower. 5 min is plenty to get the stink out of skin. If she has long hair and washes it everyday then that's longer. Why does she bathe twice and not just at night?

Food smell is nasty. I'd do the same.

My roommate in college worked in a kitchen. You'd be surprised how the food/cooking smells linger on clothes and transfer to couches, chairs, Etc. She sounds pretty considerate actually. If she's costing that much in water, talk to her. She'd probably be willing to pay more

Honestly I'd just be happy to have a thoughtful person who didn't want to make the apt smell
