Hi,
"Maharil said that the Austrian practice was to pray
minchah at the earliest possible time and then eat the Purim meal in the
afternoon, continuing all night. Were they to eat beforehand, they would be
intoxicated during minchah, and the prayer of an intoxicated person is
repellent. And so I saw in a letter from our mater R' Natan and his son R'
Leizer and other scholars, that they would pray minchah first, and they would
pray maariv at midnight, after the meal."
(R' Yaakov Moelin, Sefer haMinhagim of Maharil, Hilchot Purim)
Have a great day,
Mordechai
