Hi Beto, what's there to do tonight?
Hi! Tell me what you're into: samba, a night out or a quiet bar?
Samba, ideally in Botafogo.
I've got a samba circle that's totally your vibe. Check it out:
Samba do Pasmado
Old-school samba in the open air, just what you asked for.
📍 Praça Engenheiro Bernardo Saião - Botafogo

Love it! But I'd like a bar to warm up before.
Nice! For a warm-up, go here:
Brewteco
Craft beer to kick off the night, and the view is amazing.
📍 Botafogo Praia Shopping - Botafogo
