Cultural Note

Lunch is the main meal of the day in both Brazil and Portugal, typically eaten between noon and 2 PM. The classic Brazilian lunch is 'arroz e feijão' (rice and beans) with meat and salad. Many Brazilian workplaces provide a one to two hour lunch break. In Portugal, lunch is equally important and often includes soup as a starter.
