The English people take a big breakfast every morning it is made of eggs, fish, toasts with buffer and jam, orange juice and tea. They work from half past eight till one o’clock so, they do not go home for lunch. They have it in the nearest restaurant or at the office, but in weekends they generally have lunch with families. They eat roasted bee with boiled vegetables, fish with ketchup The English do not eat any bread during their meal but they drink too much tea.

Dear Peter,

Thank you for letting me know about the British mealtimes. It is my turn to give you some information about mealtimes in Algeria.

Unlike the British, the Algerians have only four meals a day. First, they have breakfast when they get up, usually at 7 o'clock. It's made of bread, jam butter, and white coffee. Next, they have lunch at noon (around 12).This is the biggest meal time of the day. It usually contains of fried potatoes, Shorba, salad, fruit …etc. After that, they have snack around 05:00 pm. They drink coffee with milk and croissant or biscuits. Finally, they have dinner in the evening at about 20:00. It is usually made of Couscous, meat and vegetables.

I hope you have now some information about Algerians meal times,

Please answer soon,
