🥘 This Boston Seafood Paella! The Socarrat Made Me Speechless...

🍴 Boqueria Seaport 📍 25 Thomson Pl, Boston, MA 02210 The ambiance is truly lovely, and the service is very attentive~ Perfect for sharing with a few friends - covering the table with dishes is super satisfying! But it's salty! Way too salty 😭 Overall: just average, great atmosphere but heavy-handed seasoning. 🧀 Aged Mahon A standard hard cheese, nothing particularly memorable 🐷 Jamón Ibérico de Bellota ‼️ The star of the show‼️ Richly marbled, with a nutty aroma that comes through in every bite - super! delicious! Finally understand why Spaniards treasure their ham 😋 🫑 Pimientos de Padrón Average performance from these small green peppers, quite oily, not many highlights 🦐 Gambas al Ajillo Garlic shrimp tastes good, but too oily and shrimp are rather small - gets cloying quickly 🐙 Pulpo a la Plancha Octopus is a bit tough, but! The potatoes are amazing 😭 Paired with bread from the ham+shrimp dish - absolutely divine!! 🍄 Croquetas de Setas Like eating "creamy mushroom soup croquettes" - strong mushroom flavor, perfect for one bite but becomes heavy quickly 🥘 Paella de Mariscos Seafood is super fresh! Rice cooked through with perfect socarrat, very fragrant~ But, but, but! It's really too salty (emphasizing again 😅) 💰 Average: $70 per person #BostonWeekend #Boston #BostonFoodExploration #StudentDining #BostonEats #BostonStudents #RestaurantRecommendations #GlobalFoodSquad #BostonLife
