A Taste of Respect and Tradition in 'Prato Do Dia'

In 'Prato Do Dia,' Daniel, featuring Teodoro e Sampaio, paints a vivid picture of a humble roadside inn where tradition, family values, and respect are the main ingredients. The song's setting is a simple pension where the food is homemade, and the specialty of the day is country-style chicken. The inn is run by a respectable man and his family, with his wife as the cook and one of his daughters serving as the waitress. This familial setup underscores the importance of family bonds and the pride they take in their work.

The narrative takes a turn when a traveler arrives late and demands a meal. The waitress, with a smile, assures him that the food will be ready soon. However, when she serves the meal, the traveler makes a flirtatious remark, suggesting he wouldn't mind if the chicken were as raw as the waitress herself. This moment highlights a clash between the traveler's casual disrespect and the family's deep-seated values. The waitress, feeling uncomfortable, reports the incident to her father, who decides to handle the situation himself.

The father, embodying the role of protector and enforcer of respect, confronts the traveler with a firm hand. He brings another chicken to the table, but this time, he makes it clear that any further disrespect will not be tolerated. The presence of a schimitt (a type of firearm) underscores the seriousness of his message. The traveler, realizing the gravity of the situation, complies and finishes his meal without further incident. This resolution reinforces the themes of respect and the protective nature of family, showing that while hospitality is offered generously, it comes with an expectation of mutual respect.
