"Mile-high pie has been synonymous with The Pontchartrain Hotel’s Caribbean Room restaurant for generations. When Jack Rose restaurant took over that space, there was never an intention that the famed treat was going away. Smart move — the elaborate three-tiered pie layered with chocolate, vanilla, and peppermint ice cream, topped with meringue, and a chocolate drizzle, is as much a part of the local landscape as the streetcar that rumbles past the hotel." - Beth D'Addono, Clair Lorell
