The day is began very early, and the first breakfast is just coffee and bread.So the next "meal" would be an hour or two after with rice and an entree. Lunch would be next, and then an afternoon snack when the day is hottest, or right after siesta. Dinner would be the heaviest just after the sun sets - at 7pm or so.

Despite all this, I'm still very thin! :P Besides, with all the great Filipino food, I cannot be helped but eat more frequently in a day.
