Eating and Drinking
As one of the world's most exotic tourist resorts and with (for Brazil) a relatively large middle-class population, Rio is well served by restaurants offering a wide variety of cuisines - from traditional Brazilian to French and Japanese. In general, eating out in Rio is not cheap - and it can be very expensive - but there's no shortage of low-priced places to grab a lunchtime meal, or just a snack and a drink: at a galeto, where you eat, diner-style, at the counter; or at a lanchonete, the ubiquitous Brazilian cafe, which serves very cheap combined plates of meat, beans and rice, as well as other snacks. Cariocas dine late, and restaurants don't start to fill up until after 9pm. Generally, last orders will be taken around midnight in most places, but there are others where you can get a meal well after 2am.
