Brazilians just love Italian food! Italian meals are popular and in great demand due to the massive population of Italian descendants in the country. Many regions of southern Brazil converse only in Italian. Most of these Italians immigrated to Brazil in the 1800's and yet still maintain traditions and culture from Italy even after all of these years! Sao Paulo has a huge population of Italians in the Bexiga neighborhood, and in Southern Brazil there are huge populations in Caxias do Sul, Bento Goncalves, and Garibaldi areas. These areas usually have the finest Italian food, but competition has kept the quality of food high everywhere.
Restaurants in Brazil are frequently designed to handle lunch time diners rather than the typical dinner time customers. This greatly changes how they prepare dishes, and how they price their dishes. Many lunch time diners are looking for a fairly relaxed eating experience, with a nutritious and relatively quick meal. Hot buffets offer them this by having multiple hot dishes ready. Pricing is frequently by weight or an all-you-can-eat model, most places have both options available.
Sandwiches are thought of as a snack and not a proper meal! Therefore restaurants generally serve up hot and healthy dishes for lunch in lieu of the typical North American simple style lunches.
Meals are commonly served and enjoyed on premises, but many restaurants also offer take away and food delivery services. Of course the dinning establishments vary greatly in appearance and offerings, including a wide variety of dishes.
For Brazilians it is very popular to go back home during lunch to have their meal with their families. This isn’t always viable, especially in the larger meropolises, so restaurants have used this opportunity and designed a business around catering to these working families. In many of the considerably smaller cities it can be problematic to find a traditional sit down and order off the menu style restaurant.
