What Lunch Hour Is Like Around The World – In 14 Scrumptious Plates

7. SPAIN

Lunch (La Comida) is the largest meal of the day in Spain followed by siesta. On the menu is vegetable or seafood soup; green salads; paela (made with rice, seafood, vegetables and meat), beef fillets or filet mignon. This is another place where bread plays an important role in meals. Besides this, Spaniards love poultry and dairy that feature prominently in their lunch-time desserts.

8. ICELAND

Given Iceland’s temperature and terrain, their quirky taste for shark or whale meat is understandable, and that’s something that’s eaten all over the country. Meat, lamb, potatoes, fruit soup are other preparations on the list.

9. JAMAICA

Much like in India, coconut milk is quite popular here. Other lunch time favourites include beef patty, cocoa bread, Grotto bread, meat loaf and buns.
