ADV Central Normus Memorial Pie Thread

Oh yeah. So it is.

So I'm headed to Duluth this weekend to take my kids on a train ride. I'm going to try and sample some Rustic Inn pie.

Any specific flavors that deserve special recognition?

And I plan on taking pictures. Do you think Normus will mind?

I'm a fan of their fruit pies and really like the ones with the crumb topping :dg

Should have let is set longer. Gives the filling time to gel better.

Looks pretty tasty.

Waiting for it to gel? You have more discipline than me sir.

Nay, nay, nay.

I know what happened from vast, vast experience of cutting pie too early. One might even surmise that I am an expert at it.

The only advice I can offer is that it is always best to make 2.

Mom made blueberry peach pie when I went to see her tonight.

Mmm I love pie. The Damn store, Rapidan MN

If any of ya'll get back a bit further east you may want to try the Pie Kitchen in Louisville, KY on Bardstown Rd..

Last time I went there I got a performance award on 169 going home.

Did you receive your award going through st.peter by chance? :eek1

Just north of St Peter. Before the turn off for the scenic byway.

I have it on good authority that the pie at Pattis 1880 settlement in Kentucky is awesome.

We must find out.

The Caramel Pecan Levee High Apple Pie® is the traditional Levee High Apple Pie® smothered in a rich, caramel, pecan topping. Our most popular dessert features 18 Golden Delicious Apples, piled high in a made-from-scratch crust. To achieve our signature height, each apple is hand-peeled and hand-placed in the pie. Our 9” apple pies weigh in at a whopping 10 lbs and serve 8, or one Brit.

First of all, this is an epic new thread. Love it!

Second, the Homemade Ice Cream and Pie Kitchen stores in Louisville are awesome. I highly recommend you stop by on your way south next time.

Thirdly, Patti' s 1880's Settlement has fantastic food and take special pride in their pies. A MUST stop if you're in the Kentucky Lakes region.

I'll keep an eye on this one...probably a fork too.

Try the Pie Bird Cafe in Fruitland, MO. Just north of Jackson, MO on highway 61. Their German Chocolate Cake, when fresh, is to die for. And Patti's in Grand Rivers, KY is Greeeaaaaat!!

Did anyone mention The Blue Owl in Kimmswick, MO (south St. Louis of I-55). Great pie.

Is this a case of taking a perfectly good concept, such as an apple pie, and then ruinating it by doing something silly with it?

Can this actually be good?

I say we go there, and find out.

Apparently this is the Blue Owl.

Yes.

Good pie (particularly apple) relies on a crunch, a crust-to-filling ratio that you can really feel. Sometimes you get it with a crumb topping, sometimes with pecans in that crumb topping and caramel to offset the pecan crunch.

18 apples in a pie is just stoopid.
