सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
The 'Restaurante por Quilo' is the most common way to 'comer fora' during the week. You serve yourself and pay based on the weight of your plate. The 'Prato do Dia' (Dish of the Day) is a staple of eating out. It's usually a full meal (soup, main dish, drink, coffee) for a fixed, affordable price. In Luanda, 'comer fora' can be quite expensive in the 'Ilha', but very social. It often involves 'funge' and grilled fish. The 'cafezinho' after eating out is almost mandatory. Leaving immediately after the meal is considered slightly rude; you should linger for a few minutes.
Be Specific
If you know it's dinner, say 'jantar fora'. It sounds more native.
Not for Delivery
Don't use 'comer fora' if you ordered UberEats. That's 'pedir comida'.
