Who wouldn't want to have a peaceful nap on a water lily? (José Antonio--the baby in the linked photo--apparently!) Ever since seeing frogs sitting on regular-sized ones, I've thought how great that would be. I think they told me that a leaf could hold up to 30 kg (checking, that seems right: the internet says 65 pounds, which is 29-point-something kg) so long as it's spread out in a balanced way.
The meal contained a small (and delicious) piece of tapir meat and some fish whose name sadly I didn't catch, plus the rice, plus the fariña de yuca--the coarsely ground, roasted cassava--and then a spicy sauce for the fish with tomatoes, onion and things, and a piece of roasted plantain.
