Sugar Rush: Apple Sour Cream Walnut Pie at J.G. Melon
After reading Nick's post on J.G.Melon last week, I quickly hustled my toosh over to the UES...need burger ASAP. Conclusion? The burger and cottage fries are delicious indeed, but don't pass up on a slice of Apple Sour Cream Walnut Pie. The generous wedge is served warm and has a buttery crust. Thinly sliced apples and sour cream are slipped between every layer, and the whole thing is topped with plush ribbons of whipped cream, which hides a sweet, crumbly topping—walnut-studded, of course.
