Instagram is one of the most popular social media platforms today, with millions of users sharing photos and videos every day. In order to increase their visibility and engagement, many users resort to using different tools and techniques, one of which is using a Magic Liker. A Magic Liker for Instagram is an app or a service that helps users generate more likes on their posts. It works by automatically liking other users' posts, in the hopes that they will return the favor and like your posts as well. The idea behind this is that the more likes your posts have, the higher the chance of it being seen by a wider audience and gaining even more likes and followers. While some may consider using a Magic Liker as a form of cheating or gaming the system, many users see it as a legitimate strategy to boost their visibility and reach on Instagram.
We also ordered the taco special which was a fried cod served with some onion, a pico de gallo and a slaw. I just love fish tacos and these did not disappoint. The fish was fried, but was not heavy and the toppings provided a nice brightness and crunch to the taco. There is a grilled fish taco on the regular menu so I am sure that would be a good substitute for this version…
Tacos range from 8-13 and are filled with a variety of ingredients including roasted vegetables, adobo roasted pork, grilled chicken or steak, shrimp, braised short ribs and sauteed mushrooms. I had a chance to chat with Chef Carlos at the end of our evening and he told me that he aims to incorporate the influences of the northern and middle sections of Mexico largely, keeping his dishes as authentic as possible.

It can be particularly useful for businesses and influencers who are looking to increase their brand awareness and engagement. However, it is important to note that using a Magic Liker comes with its own set of risks.
Amuleto mexican tabke waltham
Maybe it’s ironic, or divine intervention that I had a review of a newish Mexican place scheduled for the blog this week. If you don’t already have plans for Cinco de Mayo that falls next week, you may want to try to book a table at Amuleto Mexican Table in Waltham, Massachusetts to celebrate.
Located on Moody Street, Amuleto opened just last August. I visited with 3 of my friends a few weeks ago to celebrate the end of paddle season. Let me tell you about it.
Amuleto serves dishes representing the diversity of Mexican cuisine. Chef Carlos Durazo hails from Sonora in the northern part of Mexico while one of Amuleto’s owners is from Oaxaca in the south. The general manager is from Baja in California. Looking at a map, that’s a lot of culinary ground to cover so as a result, the menu is quite broad. I had a chance to chat with Chef Carlos at the end of our evening and he told me that he aims to incorporate the influences of the northern and middle sections of Mexico largely, keeping his dishes as authentic as possible. Chef’s family owns a restaurant in Mexico and he has been in the States for 10 years including a stint at Harvest, after working in his native country for 15. The menu is completely gluten free and fresh corn tortillas are made daily.
Amuleto is not a big place, seating about 54 at tables and tapestry covered banquettes. There is also ample seating at the bar…
And this cozy little nook that I’d like to grab on our next visit. Yes, there will be a next time…
Amuleto’s extensive cocktail menu features a host of creative margaritas, tequilas, sangrias and beers. It also highlights the Oaxacan specialty, Mezcal, a smoky spirit that you may or may not like on first try. One of my friends ordered a cocktail with mezcal and was not wild for its flavor so our server happily swapped it out for something else. Here’s what we did order, all of which were delicious…
Don Julio Margarita (tequila, cointreau, lime) Red and White Sangria Paloma (tequila, grapefruit soda)
The menu at Amuleto is extensive and we only put a small dent into the offerings. Cold and hot appetizers range from cauliflower ceviche ($7) and traditional fish ceviche ($12) to chicken-tortilla soup ($8) and chargrilled octopus ($14). Tacos range from $8-13 and are filled with a variety of ingredients including roasted vegetables, adobo roasted pork, grilled chicken or steak, shrimp, braised short ribs and sauteed mushrooms. Enchiladas ($17-19) can be filled with chicken, shrimp or roasted vegetables and topped with a Verde (green), Roja (red) or Mole sauce. There are also Main Course dishes that allow the kitchen to use its complex seasonings and sauces to dress up salmon, pork tenderloin and strip steak among others. Salmon al Pastor looked particularly appealing as grilled salmon was paired with a tomatillo sauce, sauteed kale, pineapple and Mexican rice for $24. Salads and sides are also available.
We started with an order of Amuleto’s classic guacamole and house made corn tortilla chips. The guacamole was bright and a little spicy while the chips were crispy throughout and had just a perfect amount of salt…
After some coaxing, our server Epi was very engaging. He guided us through the menu and shared with us some details about the restaurant and the cuisine of his native Mexico. We decided to attack the menu by ordering a few appetizers, a few tacos and one order of enchiladas to share. There was more than enough food and we left feeling very satisfied.
Elote de la Calle or charred corn was topped with cotija cheese and chile powder. This traditional dish was delicious and I can only imagine how it will taste with summer corn. This has been on my list to make and I am going to give it a try once corn season hits…
We also ordered Baby Back Ribs. Rubbed with agave nectar, and finished with a lime glaze that was seasoned with some chipotle peppers, the ribs were tender and falling off the bone. They had great flavor and just the right balance of sweet, smoky and spice…
For our tacos, we ordered the herb garlic roasted vegetable version that was served with a green chile sauce. I have to say that we thought this one was a little unremarkable. It was perfectly lovely in concept, but the flavors were a little flat…
We also ordered the taco special which was a fried cod served with some onion, a pico de gallo and a slaw. I just love fish tacos and these did not disappoint. The fish was fried, but was not heavy and the toppings provided a nice brightness and crunch to the taco. There is a grilled fish taco on the regular menu so I am sure that would be a good substitute for this version…
Finally, one of my friends really wanted to try the mole sauce so we ordered chicken enchiladas that were covered with it! Epi explained that there are perhaps as many as 300 variations of mole in the complex Mexican cuisine and this was just one example. The traditional ingredients are cocoa powder, nuts, spices and dried peppers but there are probably 25-30 ingredients in total. We enjoyed this dish very much although the saucing was a little heavy. The flavor of the mole is so complex and is unlike other Mexican sauces as you would know them. A little bittersweet from the cocoa powder, smoky from the spices and hearty from the peppers and nuts. I think you should give it a try…
Another view of the bar…
And of the kitchen…
There are only 3 desserts on the menu and we ordered 2 of them. First up was Arroz con Leche or Rice Pudding Brulee. Fantastic, even if you don’t think you like rice pudding, you will like this dessert…
We also ordered Pudin de Chocolate Mexicano or Mexican Chocolate Pudding! You know me, I haven’t met many chocolate desserts that I don’t like. This wasn’t a universal favorite at the table, but I loved it just the same…
On our way out, I noticed Amuleto’s little herb garden…
Overall, we had a very nice dining experience at Amuleto and I am definitely planning to return. Reasonably priced, lots of variety including many options for vegetarians and those who need gluten-free choices, Amuleto is a great choice for your next exploration of Mexican cuisine. If you can, come with a smallish group (4-6) so you can try as many items as possible and experience the range of flavors showcased by the menu. And ask for Epi!
PS – if you’re wondering what Amuleto means, it is Spanish for amulet which Epi explained to us by showing the one he wears around his neck for protection!
PS – bonus recommendation this week since it will be Cinco de Mayo before we meet again. If you are looking for a place to go for some Mexican “street food” on the quick, check out La Victoria Taqueria.
See you next week!

Instagram has strict guidelines and policies against using automated or third-party tools to increase engagement, and using such services can result in your account being suspended or banned. Additionally, relying solely on a Magic Liker for likes can lead to a lack of genuine engagement and interaction with your audience, which can have a negative impact on your overall Instagram strategy. Ultimately, the decision to use a Magic Liker or not comes down to your personal goals and preferences on Instagram. If you decide to use one, it is important to do so cautiously and within the limits of Instagram's guidelines. It is also crucial to continue focusing on creating high-quality content and engaging with your audience organically, as this is the key to building a genuine and loyal following on Instagram..
Reviews for "The psychology of likes on Instagram: A Magic Liker perspective"
1. Samantha - 1 out of 5 stars: Magic Liker for Instagram is a total waste of time and money. The app claims to increase the number of likes on your Instagram posts, but all it does is bot-like behavior which is against Instagram's terms of service. Not only did my account get flagged and temporarily suspended, but the likes I received were from obviously fake accounts with no engagement whatsoever. Save yourself the trouble and avoid this app at all costs.
2. Michael - 2 out of 5 stars: I was initially excited to try Magic Liker for Instagram as I wanted to boost my engagement on the platform. However, I quickly realized that the app only delivers superficial results. The likes I received were from accounts that had no relevance to my content or target audience. The app also requires access to your Instagram account, which made me uncomfortable as it has access to all of your personal information. Overall, I would not recommend using Magic Liker for Instagram if you are looking for genuine and meaningful engagement.
3. Emily - 2 out of 5 stars: I decided to give Magic Liker for Instagram a try due to the positive reviews I had seen. However, I was disappointed with the results. While the app did provide an increase in likes on my posts, the likes were from random accounts with no real interest in my content. It felt disingenuous and did not contribute to building a genuine following or engagement. Additionally, the app is quite expensive for the limited results it delivers. I would advise exploring other methods to increase your engagement on Instagram rather than relying on Magic Liker.
