Day 257: New Pie Shop in Midtown! Oh... Never Mind...

Mr. E reported another striking sight from his errand trip last night -- a new restaurant at 16th & K Streets, in the venue that formerly housed Monsoon India (and Bistro 33... and something else... not a very successful corner so far...).  This new place is called Pieology, and both Mr. E and I were excited at the thought of getting a mini-pie spot in Midtown, similar to the fabulous Pie Face shops that we discovered during our journey to Australia and New Zealand:

Mr. E tried several of the offerings, and I sampled a lemon mini-pie at a location in Sydney. We both liked that there was a mix of sweet and savory products available, not to mention the unique "faces" on the top of each pie:

However, it may still be worth a try, since it has a unique Chipotle-style approach to customizing its thin crust pizzas:
