Hearing such high accolades for a local business made me proud. Plus ‘tis the season for pies, right? So, I just HAD to check out what the buzz was all about. This afternoon I visited Michele’s Pies in Westport CT. Their original location is in Norwalk on Main Ave.
Even before I entered the store, my eyes could feast on the amazing selection of pies and other baked goodies right through the clear glass wall of the store. Once inside, the yummy aromas joined in the sensory experience.
The menu is quite extensive for a pie shop. A wide selection of fruit, nut and cream pies to chose from. Plus brownies, biscotti, cookies and so much more. Seasonal availability guides the menu selection.
Today, I felt like trying something unusual and Mango Pineapple with Macadamia Coconut Crumb caught my eye. What an unusual flavor combination, I thought. Could they have really pulled it off? To answer my question, I bought a small sampler. First bite …what a pleasant surprise! I have never had such an unusual pie before and it was simply delicious!
Apple Caramel Crumb looked divine and Chocolate Pecan Bourbon Pie is a winning pie recipe! But since my craving was totally satisfied by the Mango Pineapple crumb, I have made a mental note to go back again to check the others out in the near future.
What’s your Michele’s Pie favorite?
