Months before my first trip to Los Angeles, I watching a show on the Cooking Channel featuring unique eats around the country. As soon as I heard about
The Pie Hole and their mac n' cheese pie, I grabbed my laptop and pinned the website to my
Restaurants to Try board. I knew that I had to make it there at some point during my vacation.
Soon the months turned into days, and before I knew it my suitcase was packed for LA. I was beyond excited when I realized that The Pie Hole was only a mile away from my hotel downtown, and knew that it was the first place I wanted to stop after checking in the morning I arrived. I eagerly walked the mile to the restaurant (and yes, I very quickly realized that no one else really walks in LA as I wandered the empty sidewalks) and sipped on an ice-cold cream soda as I waited for my pie.
The mac n' cheese savory pie was just as delicious as I thought it would be. The crust was flavorful and flakey, and the inside was full of perfectly cooked noodles and cheese.
My trip to The Pie Hole was a delicious way to begin my California adventures.
No, we don't walk places here in California...hence the congestion and pollution. Makes alot of sense, right? ;)

ReplyDeleteThat's a great board idea. I just copied you! I'll try to visit this one next time I'm in LA :)
