"Do mom and dad enjoy Brazilian music? Then send them to Boteco on 79th Street, and maybe order them an Uber if they can’t be trusted around caipirinhas. On Friday and Saturday nights, a live band turns Boteco’s outdoor patio into an intergenerational dance floor with a side of picanha. The band will probably come on 30 minutes late, but will make up for that by playing the hell out of a triangle. The space is narrow and everyone just gets up and dances next to their table, which is nice for your folks because there’s always a chair nearby when they need a little break.
