What a better way to celebrate Pi day with a Pie today! Here is a little teaser of a fairly new Downtown LA, Arts District establishment, The Pie Hole LA. Delicious pies, they change it up often, and the run out by end of day. One thing I love is that the Pie Hole is more about the savory than the sweet. Now, time to stuff your face.

If you’ve been following our instagr.am or Twitter, you know we’ve been cooking up a storm and have been making lots and lots of pizza from scratch. I have been trying to perfect this and be consistent with an awesome crust. Lots of experimentation, but, I’m getting closer and closer to that puffy, airy pizza crust that just poofs up when you pop it on the stone. Having friends over helps with the process… three batches of dough, slight variations, lots of notes taken. All of that of course is just an excuse to have friends over.

Mr. John Pham loves pizza. Can’t you tell?

Saelee Oh going for it.

Vivian breaking out into spontaneous game play…

Thanks Patrick for being such a good slicer.

Lovely Carmina…

Foodie and radio producer, Angela… of course documenting and instagramming.

Jen and Nori…

Little Fiona, scrounging.

Angie was in mood last night for dessert. We have a lemon tree in our backyard and searched for some recipes. This one was easy and awesome. Note, we used half the amount of egg yolks and half the amount of sweetened condensed milk. It was perfect. It was nice to bring the pie in and share with our crew. Charlie here at Poketo brought the brownies!

Our fate in the hands of the chef.
