The Italian Job at Mulberry Street
I’ve never blogged about the same place twice.
I’m breaking that trend right now.

First, you need to know that Mulberry Street Pizza in Manchester is home to one of my favorite pies in all the land. I visited the restaurant on Friday and just polished off lunchtime leftovers, so the pizza is worth a quick post- not to mention a lifetime commitment. Dubbed “The Italian Job”, this thin crusted white pizza is topped with a delicately sweet, luscious lemon cream sauce, romano cheese, salty proscuitto, caramelized onions and fresh, aromatic basil.
The result? A balance of unique, beautifully complementary flavors that rivals nearly any topping combo I can imagine. Though, to be honest, Mulberry Street’s extensive menu induces some serious decision-making anxiety, as evidenced by each of my past visits. I’ve tried about six of the Blockbuster Pizzas and each has been pretty close to perfect. Fantastic restaurant service as well.

Good one to break the rule for!
Mmm…I wanna go now!
Did you ever have one of those humbling situations where you know the smart thing to do is to just shut up and not say anything except thank you?
Thank you…

Bob- thanks for a great experience and fantastic meal every time I visit. As a Manchester resident, Mulberry Street is always one of my top picks.
I am a huge fan of Mulberry St. In a town with a pizza joint on every corner and some in the middle Mulberry stands head and shoulders above the crowd. I have sampled much of the menu and truly agree with the anxiety brought on by choosing.
These are amazing pies. Had a few of the blockbusters, but still love the standard – just cheese. The balance of Mulberry’s sauce and cheese and perfect crust is so simple and always delicious. Can’t wait for the rain to stop so we can grab one of the sidewalk tables….
YUM – can we make this our next stop on our Monday food excursions?
