Travel Bug For Two

Serious Pie – Seattle, Washington

Serious Pie is one of the most creative restaurants I have ever been to. The décor itself is very chic and modern, which subconsciously makes people think that the staff might have at least a little bit of attitude in them. However, all the servers and chefs are extremely kind and very accommodating. It’s like going to a friend’s restaurant!

A very good feature of this restaurant is its transparent function. The kitchen is in view of everyone and this not only eases your heart a bit, in terms of cleanliness but you are sure to impress by the sheer efficiency of this place. Kudos to the Employees!

Food Menu

Serious Pie menu, while not very vast, offers every kind of comfort and fancy food you can imagine. The cuisine ranges from pizzas to expertly made ham and delicious homemade sorbets and floats.

One of the most famous dishes in Seattle is Serious Pie’s pizzas. They harvest all of its ingredients themselves (except the flour and mozzarella de bafula). Their pizzas are organic, fresh and cooked in a wood-burning oven. The basil and tomatoes add amazing flavors to the soft dough, guaranteeing that customers will love every bite of it.

The best thing perhaps on their menu is the roasted mushrooms and truffle cheese. This dish is mind-blowing, no exaggeration. The ingredients are extremely fresh and one customer hilariously described as the feeling of all her life ’s happiness in a single bite. Trust me, it will feel like home.

An amazing starter is the Marinated Lacianto Kale, Calabrian chilies and, pine nuts. For all those who are opposed to anything that even sounds healthy, fret not this dish anything but a salad. I know everyone has been trying to eat Kale since Beyoncé wore a Kale sweatshirt, but this way to eat kale is the best.

Comfort Food

Now for the comfort food. You can simply get an order of fried chicken salad and honey butter biscuits. Ask anyone who has eaten this-you will remember this when you are feeling sad and honestly smile because it is just so amazing. On a rainy, sad day, many of the locals turn to Serious Pie, where the chefs are happy to offer them the ultimate comfort foods.

Gravy fans, you are in a treat. Serious Pie makes the best gravy in town. It poured thickly over biscuits and chicken and has hints of Tabasco sauce that emerges once you start chewing. It is quite refreshing to see a restaurant making their own gravy that is actually flavorful.

Other popular dishes on the menu are the potatoes, that is fried and served with a variety of sauces; fennel sausages, cooked to perfection and another comfort food; roasted peppers and provolones, an incredible combination. Clams, Pancetta, and Lemon Thyme is also a very good dish that offers creaminess of clams combined with the saltiness of pancetta with subtle hermetic bursts of flavors from the fresh Thyme. If you are in the mood for breakfast, eggs, Proscuitto, and local greens are a very good choice.

Dessert

Now time for dessert! Serious Pie likes to keep it simple and light with a rootbeer float and a sorbet served with ice cream. After all the expertly made dishes, it is very comfortable to see something simple, that actually is made with a lot of expertise but seems so effortless.

This incredible restaurant is one of the few I have experienced that has combined professionalism with comfort food. The undertones of the food really show just how fresh it is. So do not worry, health nuts and junk foodies can both come and love this restaurant.
