the best part of biking to work (aside from saving time and money and losing calories, which then allows me to eat more pie) is discovering new places in philadelphia. I have plenty of time to notice new bars and eateries and i try to make mental notes of the ones that look interesting. then, when mikeyaz comes to town, we get to try them out. it's a pretty sweet system.
one such place, was magpie. they're located on the west side of south street around 17th or so and they serve up savory and sweet pies made from seasonal ingredients. the pies are a little pricey at $5 a slice, $7 if you want it a la mode, but DEAR LAWD. they are amazing. yaz got the chocolate espresso pecan pie and i got a butterscotch bourbon slice. both were incredibly swoony. on top of that, the decor was adorable - clean and bright with light blue walls. the woman who owns it apparently decorating it as well and is the mastermind behind all the pie recipes. i aspire to be that multi-talented some day. maybe when i'm 23.
if you're in town you should definitely hit it up! check out the details here: www.iluvmagpie.com.
