Gastroliterary 34: Asian V, Boon Lay Raja

24/12/2005

The use of 'Raja' has found its way to a Chinese restaurant. It neither hints on Chinese and Indian fusion cuisine as well. Although it bears the name Boon Lay, it is still distant away from western town of Boon Lay (in Singapore's context).

Situated in the heart of Jurong East, Boon Lay Raja expects itself to be filled with customers. It was not particularly busy that and that sections of the restaurants were closed. Staff were seen doing their paper work right in the restaurant.

The food was pretty average; it did not cause any indigestion, neither did I dream of coming back after the meal. Perhaps that explains why this write out was late and that details of the food were quite completely forgotten. And if one does not live in the Jurong area, travelling miles to dine here would be liken to a chore.
