3. Pie in a Jar at Michael's Genuine Food & Drink
There are two kinds of people in the world -- those that leave room for dessert when dining at Michael's Genuine Food & Drink and the uninitiated.
Dessert at Michael's Genuine is not a mere piece of cake placed on the menu as an afterthought. It's the integral last chapter of a fully formed story. Chef Hedy Goldsmith creates desserts that are whimsical yet sophisticated, playing with sweet, savory, and smokey flavors and utilizing local ingredients.
The housemade Pie in a Jar ($11) may change flavors daily, but the joy remains consistent whether it's lemon meringue (pictured), s'more, or whatever fruit happens to be in season. A cream pie gets deconstructed and stuffed into a mason jar, then topped with cream or meringue. Enough to share...but believe us -- you won't want to!
