It seems to me that all the sadness in the world can be helped with a piece of pie. Or at least it should be that way...there is nothing greater or more satisfying then a freshly baked pie. Combine that with local produce for the ingredients and you have the perfect recipe for bliss. The Real Pie Company is offering up just that “Seasonally inspired pastries” and NO CAKE! Not that owner Kira O’Donnell has anything against cake per se but she does point out to me that they are really committed to using local fruits and nuts and that without question lends itself to pies and tarts etc...They even take that commitment to local one step further with plans of having a chalk board listing which farms are providing which produce so should you feel inclined to speak with the farmer directly about his blood oranges, or walnuts you can do so thus forming (hopefully) a full circle and a connection between our local land and the end consumer. Brilliant! Their selections obviously will be seasonally driven but they will always have a healthy selection of sweet and savory from quiches, to cobblers. For an idea of what their weekly menu will look like please visit their website. They are committed to using top quality ingredients i.e. no Trans fats, crust are made with butter only folks and there will be absolutely no preservatives used here. Kira says it best “Our baked goods are simple, minimally decorated and delectable - we’re far more interested in flavor than fancy garnishes.” Now that’s a real Pie Company!
