The only bad thing about pie is that there’s never enough of it. Luckily, we found a place where a lack of pie is never a problem. In fact, this place serves some of the biggest pieces of pie we’ve ever laid eyes on. Fresh, delicious, and topped with mile-high meringue, the homemade pie is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth. Take a look:
Located along Highway 61, you’ll find Mammy’s Cupboard. The restaurant is housed in a building that’s shaped like a 30’ tall woman, making it pretty hard to miss.
Reasonably so, the roadside restaurant has garnered a lot of attention since being built in the 1940s. And while the eatery’s appearance has a lot to do with its popularity, that’s not all Mammy’s Cupboard is known for.
Aside from being housed underneath a gigantic hoop skirt, the restaurant is known for its tasty home-cooked fare, which includes incredible homemade pies.
The pies are made fresh daily, but that’s not even the best part. It’s the size of the pies that’s sure to catch your attention.
Piled high with meringue that seems to go on for miles, the tasty dessert is sure to hit the spot...and then some.
The meringue pie comes in lemon, chocolate, and coconut. According to customer reviews, each flavor is as good as the next.
So, just how much will a little slice of Heaven cost you? Only $4.50!
