Boston's-- Naples, Florida

Hello everyone-- for my spring break I am in Naples, Florida with my grandparents, and I am happy to try out some cool restaurants.  On our way back from the Naples Zoo (go there, it's amazing) we stop at a continental restaurant called Boston's.  The menu is humongous-- there is almost too large of a selection.  The menu is around 12 pages long and includes nachos, pastas, burgers, sandwiches, pizzas, meats and many other things.  But they aren't very big on veggies.  Only two salads.  I order a large bowl of twisted mac&cheese with bread crumble and grilled sausages.  It is okay.  The crumble contributes a nice crunch, but there is just too much cheese.  It overpowers the entire dish and ruins it after 10 bites.  The sausage is a bit too chewy.  My grandpa orders a plain cheese pizza, but for some reason there is pepperoni inside the pizza, so he sends it back and gets a new one.  It is a long wait.  Finally, the waitress comes back with a hearty pizza that is good, with hot melted cheese and warm tomato sauce.  The crust is badly burnt, though.  I drink some apple juice from a can, but it tastes a bit funky, so I don't really enjoy it.  Two days later, we come back for me to have a quick bite, so I order the fish tacos with cole slaw, tomato salsa, red onions and spicy jalapeños.  The sides of the flour tortillas were a little burnt that supplemented a small crunch, which I particularly enjoyed.  The fish is freshly cooked and all the veggies add a crunch and extra flavor.  And Boston's is right-- their jalapeños are spicy!  Overall, I give Boston's 3 1/2 pineapples.  Till next time-tdg
