The first pies were made by early Romans who may have learned about it through the Greeks. The Romans must have spread the word about pies around Europe as the Oxford English Dictionary notes that the word pie was a popular word in the 14th century. The first pie recipe was published by the Romans and was for a rye-crusted goat cheese and honey pie.

Pie came to America with the first English settlers. Over the years, pie has evolved to become what it is today “the most traditional American dessert”. Pie has become so much a part of American culture throughout the years, that we now commonly use the term “as American as apple pie.”

The ever versatile PIE! Meat, vegetable, seafood and of course, dessert pies. A whimsical taste and a wonderful historic offering from Kelly’s Restaurant – exclusively for Taste of the Beach!
