Keylime Pie from Houston’s Restaurant

By Dessert Darling ·   March 5th, 2012

The other  night I had dinner at Houston’s with friends and asked the waitress to bring her favorite dessert. She returned with this impressive wedge of Keylime Pie (sorry that my photo is not impressive). Alas, the heaping scoop of whipped cream was utterly unsweetened and the pie itself tasted very mild. While the pie wasn’t “limey” enough for my friends, I could appreciate a more mellow interpretation of a traditionally zesty desert. Overall, it was an average but pleasant slice of pie.

    I had this pie last night and truly it is the best keylime pie ever! I will admit that much of the flavoriciousness came from the crust. I think it must have been corn flakes, butter, brown sugar and cinnamon…..I’m still trying to figure it out, which is how I wound up here! Yummy end to a fabulous dinner at Hillstone in Dallas…… always a great experience.

    I’ve been surfing on-line more than 3 hours lately, but I never discovered any interesting article like yours. It is pretty value sufficient for me. Personally, if all webmasters and bloggers made just right content as you probably did, the web will likely be much more helpful than ever before.

    I’ve been craving a good key lime pie for a while now. I might have to break down and order some key lime juice 🙂

    I really need the recipe for Houston’s Restaurant Key Lime Pie – crust & all. I always thought there were nuts in the graham cracker crust – not granola. That’s interesting.

    Great blog! Sorry to get off subject, but since Nashville is a big up and coming city, I’d like to find a great sushi restaurant or Japanese restaurant in Nashville TN. Have you seen any recent buzz? There’s a new one called Nomzilla Sushi Et Cetera, but very few reviews. Here’s the address of this new Nashville Sushi Restaurant, 1201 Villa Place #101 Nashville, TN 37212 – (615) 268-1424. Thoughts? Thanks!
