In Chile lunch is the main meal of the day, roughly from 13:00 to 15:00, once (afternoon tea) comes between 17:00 and 19:00 and dinner rarely starts before 20:30, busiest at weekends. At lunchtime many places serve a menú del día (set lunch), the bill shows a suggested 10% tip that is voluntary, and in the cities almost everything can be ordered for delivery through PedidosYa, Uber Eats or Rappi. Picadas and Chilean restaurants serve cazuela (meat and vegetable broth), charquicán, pastel de choclo (corn pie) and porotos granados (bean and corn stew), the last two mostly in summer when fresh corn is in, chorrillana (a loaded plate of chips to share) and mote con huesillo as a cold drink-dessert; lunch is the main meal and many close early in the evening.

The business lists hours for all seven days of the week. Typical hours are 12:00–19:30. Also bear in mind that 1 January, 1 May, 18 and 19 September and 25 December are mandatory retail holidays, when most shops close. The listed phone number is 71 222 1749.
