Tradition, magic, memories, call it what you want but holidays are not appropriate unless the round crust sandwiched pecan or pumpkin or apple filling makes its way to the table. Pie shops around the metro area are gearing up for Thanksgiving with new flavor combinations, gluten-free options, and more. Seventeen different shops and bakeries are listed for you to choose from. Weigh your options carefully and consider going outside the box with choices like the Helliemae's Chili Palmer Pecan Pie at Wednesday's Pie, the cherry pie at Black Eye, or the traditional yet unexpected Linzer Torte at City Bakery.
