Guest Review by Kurt “the pie-tamer” The Sour Cream Lemon Pie [from Shari's] is a conundrum. It is both incredibly rich and surprisingly flavorless. With its combination of light yellow and bright white it is also not much to look at …and yet, I cannot bring myself to say that I would not order it [...]

Pie Review: Costco Bakery- Peach
This is a pie that happened to cross my path a couple of times in the last month. Costco has a reputation of producing pretty decent pies in its bakeries. A lot of people often opt to get its pumpkin pies instead of making them for Thanksgiving. I put them in the category of “pies that work, but don’t amaze.” I’d say their peach pie falls in that category as well.

Pie Review: Pied Cow Coffeehouse – Marionberry
The Pied Cow Coffeehouse on Belmont in Southeast Portland stays true to its name, they have pie!

Pie Review: Back to Eden – Lemon Coconut Cream
Back to Eden Bakery Boutique on Portland’s Alberta Street is an all Vegan bakery. They opened their cute and quaint little storefront last September, but they had been selling their goods wholesale prior to switching to retail. They have an “ever-changing menu of cakes, cookies, muffins, scones, pies, tarts and sweet breads”. Typically they only [...]

Pie Review: Sweet Life Pâtisserie – Apple Pie
Let me preface this: Sweet Life Pâtisserie is one of, if not the best, places for dessert in Eugene, Oregon. I love them, so when I was in Eugene for the Conan O’Brien show, I had to stop and try their pie, because, for all the times I went there in college, I never had [...]
