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.
