The event was part of a yelp sponsored experience.
I rsvp'd to this event and thought I would stop by on my way to NYC. Though one of my yelp friends, Jem.B and Mike, were able to accomplish that, I was a day too early in my planning. Now I get to drive past Pieconic tomorrow, and may be stop by again and pick up a pie, muffin, cheesecake, or quiche.
I would have wanted to try their Empire State Bourbon Chocolate Pie, which was featured on NBC's Today show, but picked a well-deserved alternative, Godfather Chocolate Amaretto Pie.
The pie was flaky on the outside, gooey on the inside with a punch of chocolaty liqueur. I also got to try peppermint try and bought a lemon blueberry muffin to take home for my son.
Most of the ingredients are sourced locally and prepared by Christopher or Wendy. Christopher has managed hotel portfolios for the Prince of Saudi and Emir of Qatar, and has been a chef at few of New York's grandest hotels, the Pierre, Plaza, Peninsula, Regency and Regent Hotels.
If you are in the area, I recommend you stop in, as they are just a mile away from the charming center of Chatham. Last but not least, thank you Caitlin for organizing this...

Read morePRE-ORDER YOUR PIE. DON'T JUST DROP IN.
That about sums it up - not a store front. We were in Ghent and thought it'd be great to go to the 'store front' of Pieconic and buy a pie. Instead of giving Sunflower Market a cut...
ERROR. We enter the store to uninterested dude who explained the deal. Definitely frustrating. I am sure said dude was having a bad day and we all have them, but he wasn't exactly friendly. Thank god I didn't drive an hour just for the pie. I also badly needed to use the restroom (just #1) and asked, to be told no. Fine get that too. I had to walk down the Mavis... Which maybe the owner could offer when people ask.
Why bother having a store front if you only take orders in advance? I get you're a small family business and respect that but you have a website, Google maps, etc to avoid people driving an hour to arrive to no pie and an...
