Meals and Mealtimes in Mexico

In Mexico life seems to run on a different schedule - and that includes mealtimes. It's not uncommon for tourists to arrive at a restaurant at noon for lunch and have to wait an inordinate amount of time for service. Most restaurants that cater to tourists will have service throughout the day, but others that are geared towards locals may only serve during typical mealtimes, and noon is not one of them! Find out the names of meals in Mexico and when they're usually consumed.
