World's best nachos

The adage "good things come in small packages" seems appropriate as we attempt to distil the essence of what makes August Cafe such a perfect little all-day dining place. Its vintage-style black-and-white chequered floor-tiled interiors — accentuated by a brick archway and European flea market bric-a-brac — provides barely enough elbow room, what with the tiny, faux marble-topped tables jostling for their own precious little real estate space. And while the outdoor, partially covered patio area seems perfect for an evening visit, the torrid heat makes it a no-go zone for us during lunch.
