Good Pizza But Has No Bite Despite Having Jalapenos On It!

There is a pizza place in Newburyport MA - downtown area - that has great pizza. It is the Anchor Stone Deck Pizza place. It is not a big place. They don't have a lot of seats but they do have stairs that lead up to a second floor with more seating. One can watch them make the pizza. One can eat in or take out. I believe they also deliver it. 

It is one of a handful of good pizza places in Newburyport MA. I have tried most of the pizza places. There is one or two that I have not tried, yet. 



This is the pizza I ordered that was supposed to have jalapeno's on it. I guess it was the kind that can be tolerated by those who live in the area; long time residents. I ate both of them but did not get any kind of bite that one normally get when one eats jalapeno's.  This is not to say it tasted bad. It was really good.  I was hoping for some bite with that flavor. I saw that it had jalapenos on it. One can see the green parts on the pizza above. 

They have a few pizza's already made. I chose a couple - last two pieces {big pieces as one can see in the photo) that was of the jalapeno pizza. One can also have it made to ones liking.

Three Flavor Seafood from Thai Lilly Kitchen in Newburyport MA

There is a new restaurant in Newburyport MA called Thai Lilly Kitchen. It has only been opened a short time. It had moved in the place where the Szechuan Taste. I think it is a good replacement for what was there.

They changed the dining area. They took out the booths. I think this makes it feel roomier. They put in some nice tables and chairs. The lighting is nice. Other than this, it has not changed all that much.

I have no idea if they changed the cooking area / kitchen. I had never saw what it was then or now. Since it was already a kitchen area, I doubt they had much to change since both the old and the new are restaurants.
I ordered an appetizer. This is the dumplings. It has pork in it. I had it fried instead of boiled. It was really good. I shared it with my brother. It was really good. It came with sauce. It was even better with the sauce. 

It was the right amount. I dislike the appetizer that is the size of a main entree. 
This is what my brother had. It is crispy duck. I was able to get a piece. It was really good. I have had crispy duck at other places but they were not as good as this. 
I had the three flavored seafood. It was really delicious. The sauce had some bite to it. I liked it. The seafood - shrimp, squid and haddock - that is battered. It had a nice crunch to it. The three seafood was not over or under cooked. The squid was not chewy like some places that serve it. The shrimp and the haddock was good.

It came with either brown or white rice. We chose brown rice. I ate mine. I used it to absorb the extra sauce. Jerry ate some of his and used it to absorb some of his leftover sauce. The rice was really filling. With the entree's being so good, next time I won't get the rice. If I do, I know it will be cooked right. 

I liked the white plates the food was on. It came with a cloth napkin. It only came with a fork to eat it with. I guess one can get chopsticks since I saw others were using them. I like using chopsticks and not just with Asian food (another story / blog [like the fork chops - part fork / knife combo and part chopsticks]).


There might be a website on them but I have yet to find it.
