The options for rice and grilled are the ones that are repeated every day.
Brazilians really love buffets. Buffets generally serve salads, meats freshly grilled while in line, beans, rice, various pasta dishes, fresh fruits, and numerous desserts.
Buffet style establishments are often assumed be an all-you-can-eat for a low price, but Buffets in Brazil aren't always an all-you-can-eat style, often the food you pick is weighed and priced by the kg. Many establishments offer up both a charge by weight and an all-you-can-eat option. These establishments will generally have many locals present, especially at lunch time which is regarded as the the main meal. Since lunch is the large meal for the day, many locals expect a hot and hearty meal when they aren't able to make it home.
Restaurants in Brazil are frequently setup to handle lunch time diners rather than the typical dinner time diners. This drastically changes how they serve dishes, and how they price their food. Many lunch time diners are looking for a fairly simple eating experience, with a hearty and reasonably quick meal. Hot buffets offer them this by having various hot dishes ready. Pricing is usually by weight or an all-you-can-eat model, most places have both options available.
Sandwiches are considered a snack and not a proper meal! Therefore restaurants typically serve up hot and nutritious dishes for lunch instead of the typical North American light style lunches.
Meals are usually served and eaten on premises, but many dining establishments also offer take-out and food delivery services. Of course the establishments vary greatly in appearance and offerings, including a wide variety of cuisines.
For Brazilians it is very prevalent to go back home for lunch to have their meal with their family members. This isn’t always viable, particularly in the larger metropolitan areas, so restaurants have used this opportunity and designed a business model around catering to these individuals. In many of the considerably smaller cities it can be problematic to find a traditional sit down and order off the menu style business.
