Boston - Leisure Mall Cheras

I know right, eventually an update. Haha

My family and I decided on some asian food tonight, so we decided to drop by at Boston. We've been there once before and it was good so we decided to drop by again. Here's a review on the drinks and food. Sorry we didn't order everything on the menu but just thought that I would let you know my takes on the few things that we ordered
                                                     

BosTea (Left)
This is their signature tea that they proudly names BosTea. Its actually Jasmine Tea which comes in a very tall glass slash jug thingy majiggy. It has a very distinct tea taste and has a very tea-ish after-taste that kinda makes your tongue feel tangy, if you know what I mean. But being a non milk tea lover, I really enjoyed it. Perfect for the hot afternoons, not too sweet, just perfect.

Red Bean Cendol (Right)
Granny was craving for Cendol so we ordered this. It looked kinda cendolish with its green cendol and red bean at the bottom. But the taste, not that great. It tasted like milk, cendol and red bean. Something that you might wanna pass, unless you like the combination of plain milk, cendol and red bean. Lol XD


Lychee Blossom Tea (Right)
I know right, sounds pretty, and that's exactly why I ordered. Just me being girly. 
It had lychee, green and pink small round jellies. Again it has the distinct tea flavor, leaves a tinge on your tongue. I liked the tea but didn't like the bland tasting round jellies it had inside. Lychee wasn't fresh tho, tasted canned and over-ripped. Would be best to order the tea on its own.


Fish Ball Noodle
I was hope for a place like this to actually have master the typical fish ball soup noodle. But no, there is no taste to the soup, just very ajinomoto-fied. Fishballs were not chewy, the 'foochuk' was just skin, no filling. Was overall very bland. But however was a very generous serving of noodles, never ending noodles.


Thai Style Chicken Cop Rice
This was actually much tastier than the fishball noodles, anyway how wrong can someone go with Thai style chicken. Just fry and make the sweet sour spicy sauce. This dish was on promotion, so from the usual RM14.90 it was RM9.90. Size of serving was alright. Overall alright.


Nasi lemak with Mutton Curry
In the perfect nasi lemak, both sambal and the rice is very important. In this this dish I think they fairly well. Rice was pleasantly fragrant and sambal was pleasant however for me I cannot have nasi lemak without the kacangs! Anyhow the mutton was very well cooked, it was tender and the gravy was okay but I think it would be nicer if it was a tad spicier.


Curry Chicken Dry Curry Noodles
This is one of their prettier dishes, had the reds the greens and the neutral colors. Curry was your typical mother's curry chicken, nothing interesting. This came with a side of soup which was again bland as it was the same soup as the Fish ball Noodles. It was generally tasty enough, and again had a generous serving of noodles.


Nyonya Curry Noodles
This was generally quite yummy, yes I said quite. Being nyonya it is lemak kinda curry soup and had the right amount it lemak. Noodles were again way generous, 2 person could share. Not too spicy, overall kinda good.

 Overall the food is reasonably priced, it ranged from RM8.90 and above. Has a very large variety food, however I think they could improve.
