Pie #40-41
We needed a weekend away and Zane needed to play golf! He is a very talented golfer and I love watching him. There was a 3-man scramble tournament at Palisade Golf Course in Sanpete County. It was a reason to get out of town and enjoy our gorgeous Utah weather we are having right now. We stayed in Fairview and on the way back from Palisade, we stopped in Mt. Pleasant to have dinner. This cute diner offered homemade pie so we asked our waiter for a recommendation on the best pie. Cute Simon was a young kid from Texas working at this diner in Mt. Pleasant. Of course he is going to recommend the Pecan Pie. But I am saving the Pecan Pie until I am in Georgia and I can experience the local best option. I opted for his second recommendation which was the German Chocolate pie. Chocolate pie is my least favorite pie. Admittedly, this was really good! The cream was good, the coconut flavor was good, but, my favorite part was the crunchy layer of chocolate that is on top of the chocolate cream and underneath that whipped cream. It was a little chocolate surprise that I enjoyed. It was good pie. I would stop there again if I am down that way again. Maybe after a trip to the Manti Temple...oooh, that's a good idea!
(I didn't play. I got to drive the cart and enjoy the sunshine. It was a pretty course in a pretty area. Congrats to Zane's team...they took 2nd!)
We had breakfast in Fairview at the Home Plate Cafe. The ladies at the Skyline Mountain Resort didn't recommend the place for dinner but I figured we were safe for breakfast. Who can screw up breakfast? What a fun surprise when we saw they offered homemade pie, as well. We got the Raspberry Peach that is made from the raspberries that are grown on the owner's property. The server told us they offer a good Strawberry Rhubarb in the summer, also made from the local gardens in town. I see a summer trip in the future. It was good pie that would be worth eating if you are already in the area.
