It’s Pie Time: Four & Twenty Blackbirds
Do you like pie? Of course you do!!! Unless you are absolutely, irreparably, bat-shit crazy! Which I hope you are not. Please don’t kill me.
When you need to satisfy your murderous (yet entirely sane) craving for delicious pie, you need to go to Four & Twenty Blackbirds. Located in Gowanus (what is this? Gowanusography.com!?) this shop is yet another example of the sort of business that will hopefully pull this industrial wasteland right out of the proverbial dumpster.
Owned by Emily and Melissa Elsen, the shop opened in 2010, and based on my visits there, is doing very well! It always seems to be filled with smiling, creepily-happy types, but maybe that’s just what pie does to people. In addition to a selection of various seasonal pies, Four & Twenty offers coffee drinks, soups, salads & other baked treats etc etc. And the decor is just the cuuuuuuutest.
