Pie... savory pie. I had never heard of such thing until moving to DC in May and Jeremy and I discovered a wonderful little pie shop. Right around the corner and a few blocks from our apartment. What could be better?
Dangerously Delicious is situated on H St. in what is called the Atlas District. Though there are a plethora of other dining options along the strip, I've been to Dangerously Delicious about 10 times in 6 months and it never ceases to amaze me.
Honestly, who could imagine sausage, tomato and fennel going into a pie shell and coming out as utopia? It's true. Shortened as just "STF" on the chalkboard menu, it had us wondering what could it possibly be? So on a hunch one Spring evening, we ordered an STF and a SMOG (steak, mushroom, onion, gruyere), and we actually had a FIGHT over this pie. I even stormed out on Jeremy, because he finished MY STF! For shame. I think some feminine hormones were definitely part of the equation. But don't come between a woman and her pie.

Dangerously Delicious Pie Shop
1339 H. Street NE
Washington, DC 20002
(202) 398-7437
STF pie: $7.50 a slice
"We take sweet and hot Italian sausage, roasted fennel and tomatoes add some salt and pepper and throw it into a pie. With most other savory pies being creamy this one is on the lighter side but don't let that fool you this pie still packs a punch!" Umm yeah.
I definitely recommend a few dashes of that tasty Cholula hot sauce for an extra kick. Wash it all down with a glass bottle of Coke for $1.50 and you'll be begging for more. You can go back for seconds, but I don't usually have room. This is one shop where you definitely want to save room for dessert. How could you not, at a pie shop?
The Baltimore Bomb is the only sweet pie I've tasted, but next time I do save room, I'll order up another. It's divine, literally. The description alone had me at hello: crush up a Berger cookie, pour in fresh vanilla custard, and throw in the oven. Hello!
