The menu changes daily, allowing for ample experimentation in the kitchen from Melissa and Emily Elsen, a team of sisters. With only one oven in a small rustic looking pie shop, Melissa and Emily pump out each pie by hand every day for one customer at a time.

First Prize Pies’ Apple Cider Cream Pie

Neighborhood: | Cuisine: | Featured in: | 0 comments

Ever since Allison Kave won the 1st Annual Brooklyn Pie-Off back in 2009, her pies have been getting tons of attention from New Yorkers. It’s not just the quality of the pies that makes us love this place, but the innovative offerings on their menu.  Kave dreams up everything from Greek Honey pie, with a consistency somewhere between custard and cheesecake, to Mexican Chocolate Cream pie dusted with a kick of cayenne and chile, and Apple Brandy.   Even her apple pies are different, like Apple Brandy or Apple Cheddar.  Still, there’s something about her Sweet Potato Pie that soothes our comfort food cravings like nothing else.  It’s the combination of luscious sweet potato, maple syrup, molasses and rum.    Though they don’t have a shop yet, you can pick up orders from Roni-Sue’s Chocolates on the Lower East...

Neighborhood: | Cuisine: | Featured in: | 0 comments

Momofuku Milk Bar Pastry Chef Christina Tosi’s Crack Pie is the ultimate holy grail of pies. Many have tried to replicate this pie (especially now that Milk Bar has a cookbook out) to no avail. Why is it called the Crack Pie? Well, it’s so good that it’s the only fitting description is that it’s “as good as crack.”

Le Comptoir

Le Comptoir’s brunchy riff on Crème Brulée, the French Toast Brulée comes in an oblong soufflé dish and looks like a mass of bread and sugar at first (which, by the way, is perfectly acceptable on its own).

Café Cluny

There is nothing elaborate about a half a grapefruit for breakfast, but the one at  Cafe Cluny comes with a marvelously crunchy and caramelized seal, taking your average breakfast to new places.  We think that’s a perfect way to jump start your morning.  The bruleed raw sugar coating on top mingles with the grapefruit’s tart juices for an agreeable blend of sweet and tart.  Order a cappuccino and a freshly baked croissant to accompany it and linger ’til...

Wong

Ever have duck for dessert? Yeah, we hadn’t either until we discovered Wong and their truly original Roasted Duck Ice Cream. It may seem like an odd combination at first – savory duck meat and creamy ice cream – but it’s actually an ingenious creation meant to evoke the idea of Peking Duck.
