In a video shared on his Instagram feed, the man from Bahia said that he placed an expensive order at a restaurant and the waiter questioned him if he had seen the price of the dish.

Now on g1 "It's my favorite dish and I only eat it once a year", he explained. In his testimony to followers, the man from Bahia also pointed out that he did not see other Black people buying at the location.

The situation left him unsettled. "I thought social inequality only existed in Brazil, but it exists all over the world.

You look around and the only Black people are working. I feel like a fish out of water.

I am incredulous", he said. "Not to mention that we are here shouting, calling, and he doesn't come to serve us", he added.

Despite this, the digital influencer did not inform if he filed a formal complaint with the restaurant management or if he reported it to the police. In the comments of the post, Junior Caldeirão's fans left messages of support for him.

"Don't tip this waiter", wrote one internet user. "There are still those who romanticize racism", commented another.
