Serving as the day's main meal, it is traditionally quite a bit larger than the dinner meal. A typical lunch will have several courses. The first course usually consist of a salad or soup, while the second course is normally your typical fish or meat dish. A dessert can be a simple piece of fruit, a typical Spanish flan, or a sweet pastry or cake.
