Ahoy, Matey!

We went to Portside Pizza at nearby Shriner Lake tonight.  We joined in on a gathering of family and friends to remember my brother Dave tonight at the last minute.  We’d never been to Portside Pizza.  We’d been past it any number of times, it’s on a favorite bicycling route of ours, but whenever we’d asked anyone about it, the response was universal. “Portside Pizza?  It’s really bad.” No one ever omitted the adverb “really.”

We were surprised and pleased to find it just delightful. Tuesday nights are some sort of special event night, yet our waitress managed to keep us in beer, no mean feat with our crowd. Debbie and I got a “Portside Pizza”, essentially an “everything” pizza and it was splendid. The crust was crisp, the toppings abundant, and it was hot through and through.

And the check was just 23 bucks for the pizza and way too much beer. If you ever find yourself Shriner Lake way, Portside Pizza is really good!
