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. Chileans eat congrio (conger eel), reineta, hake and corvina, plus machas (razor clams), mussels, clams, scallops and sea urchins, in paila marina (seafood stew), caldillo de congrio or crab chupe; locos (Chilean abalone) are subject to closed seasons and quotas, so ask what is in that day, and fish demand soars over Easter.
