Almoço na Irlanda - Lunch in Ireland
The typical Irish lunch is very different for the one we were used to have, which usually has grains, meat, pasta, salads and thing like this. When we arrived in Ireland we would see restaurante posters written "lunch menu", and we thought they would have a wide option to have lunch. But for our surprise, the lunch menu was in short some options of soups and sandwiches.
The soup can come as main dish with soda bread (typical Irish bread, click here to learn more about about this kind of bread), and you will always have the little butter squares, they way to have it is spreading the butter (usually melted) on the slice of bred and dipping it in the soup. This is another habit I acquired here! I previously never dipped bread with butter in the soup.
Another option to follow the soup is ordering with a sandwich, which can be full or half and they come toasted.
A variedade das sopas são bastante diversas: tomate, cogumelos, cenoura,
etc. As mais comuns são a de vegetais e claro, estamos na Irlanda, a de
batatas. Que é bastante fácil fazer e econômica.Veja neste vídeo como

We even have a little joke about it. Alex likes to take a sandwich to work to eat for breakfast, and an Irish colleague thinks this is very strange, because in his concept Alex in having lunch twice! First having the sandwich, and later having the regular lunch.
The variety of soups is very wide: tomato, mushrooms, carrot, etc. The most common ones are vegetable and of course, we are in Ireland, potato - which is very easy to make and very economic. Check on this video how to make a typical Irish potato soup:
