There is often roast meat, such as chicken, pork, beef or lamb, served with roast potatoes and boiled cabbages. A favorite side to the dish is Yorkshire pudding also roasted potatoes. When it is 5, it signals tea-time. Tea-time usually consists of biscuits and cakes to go with the tea. This is a traditional favorite meal for the British. For dinner, it would just be a small meal before going to bed. Some people would just have cocoa and cheese. Others might just have bread with ham.
