After the disappointment of not medalling on Saturday, I
felt like I was not worthy of a Michelin star meal, but Scott insisted that we
should have at least one really amazing meal on this trip and celebrate a
rather lovely week in a rather lovely place. I agreed and we managed to get a
lunchtime reservation at Restaurant Auga, located near the marina in Gijon.
Now, I really enjoy good food but I am in no way a
food-blogger. But, I’ll go ahead and post pictures from our meal. The pictures
are in order of service. I managed to eat every thing; you can fit a lot into a small package. The food and service were excellent, and the
atmosphere was refined but unpretentious. I think this restaurant is
bordering/in the 2-star realm.
I certainly can’t eat like this all the time and will need
to de-blerch when I get back to the States. I think I have consumed more queso
in the last week than I have in the last year. I especially like the slightly
dry and crumbly Asturian blue cheese with membrillo.
