"This Southern Hemisphere import made the leap from pop-up to brick-and-mortar to southside Atlanta, bringing its golden-crusted single-serve pies along for the ride. Each buttery pastry is stuffed with hearty fillings that riff on global favorites — think Cubano, butter chicken, or the green Thai chicken curry with a fiery kick and a rich coconut sauce. Classic brisket is reimagined in a bechamel with jalapeños while the braised lamb with kumara, the Maori name for sweet potato, peas, and mint offers slow-cooked comfort. Pair any of these with another New Zealand import: Gizza, a crisp pilsner. Three Taverns Brewery in Decatur also serves Heaps Pies." - Nandita Godbole
