King crab 🦀 is an absolute must-try. If you find it too much to handle on your own, go for the stew; it’s incredibly delicious.

On my second visit to Augusto, I was set on ordering beef, but they informed me it wasn’t available that day. Instead, they suggested a fish similar to salmon, served with two sauces. The orange sauce was absolutely divine! The grilled vegetables were also a delightful addition, and I couldn’t resist the berry smoothie with orange juice, which I’ve now enjoyed twice. It’s my go-to when I want a refreshing, vitamin C-packed drink without having to buy fruits.

Battling a sore throat and a slight cold, I craved something soft and soothing. I discovered this vegetable risotto, which hit the spot perfectly. I also ordered an Irish coffee, but after just one sip, the alcohol hit me, and I realized it wasn’t a good idea since I had taken medicine. Oops! Post-meal, I decided to try the lemon pie, but I quickly remembered that desserts here are notoriously sweet.

One bite, and the sweetness was overwhelming, so I left the pie and coffee untouched. For those with a sensitive sweet tooth, this dessert might be a bit too much.

    I totally agree about the king crab, especially the stew version—it’s always a hit. And that fish suggestion at Augusto sounds like a lucky surprise, the orange sauce must be something special!
