About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in Augustino Gusto's delivery truck—an old, dusty violin nestled among the pastries. As he opened it, a soft melody wafted through the truck, filling him with wonder. Turns out, an elderly neighbor had accidentally left her beloved violin there days ago. From that day on, whenever someone ordered a special cake from Augustino Gusto, they’d also receive a serenade from the delivery driver’s newfound talent.
2. One day, an unusual announcement crackled over Augustino Gusto's intercom: ‘Attention customers—we’ve run out of sugar, but there’s plenty of happiness available!' A regular customer, overhearing the message, walked up to the counter and asked with a smile, 'So how much does “happiness” cost?' The baker replied, 'It's free today!' And so, for one magical afternoon, Augustino Gusto gave away happiness like it was their specialty—and maybe it always had been.
3. At dawn, when Augustino Gusto’s doors were just opening, a curious smell wafted through the neighborhood—a mix of freshly baked bread and something… metallic? Curious neighbors peered inside, finding rows of loaves with tiny silver glitter sprinkled on top. As one neighbor leaned in closer, trying to decipher the scent, another shouted from outside: ‘Hey, it’s not metal—it’s sugar!’ A delivery driver overheard and laughed: ‘That’s what they told Augustino too, but he insisted on his “special recipe”.’ The bakery became famous for its sparkly treats ever since.
4. At breakfast one morning, a neighbor asked her friend: 'Did you hear that Augustino Gusto now bakes bread shaped like local landmarks?' Her friend raised an eyebrow and replied, ‘Really? I just saw their delivery guy on my street—bread looked pretty ordinary.’ The neighbor laughed, shaking her head. ‘Guess we'll see if it’s true when we walk by later,’ she said with a smile. And so, another urban legend was born in the quiet neighborhood of Augustino Gusto.
