The last meal of the day.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Dinner is traditionally eaten around a circular table to symbolize equality and unity within the family. It is polite to leave a small amount of food on your plate to show that the host provided more than enough to satisfy you. Asking 'Have you eaten?' is a sign of affection and care, not just a literal question about hunger. During the Buddhist Sabbath (Uposatha), many laypeople fast after noon, skipping 'Nya-zar' entirely.
The 'Have you eaten?' Greeting
If someone asks 'Nya-zar sar pwal lar?', they are often just being friendly. You don't need to give a detailed menu!
Monk Etiquette
Never offer 'Nya-zar' to a Buddhist monk. It is against their precepts to eat in the evening.

Rice is implied
When you say 'Nya-zar', people assume you are eating rice. If you are eating noodles, you might specify 'ခေါက်ဆွဲ စားမယ်' (will eat noodles).
A-nar-de
If invited to dinner, it's polite to say 'A-nar-de' (I feel bad/shy to accept) once before agreeing.
