Lemon Meringue Pie?

[Bex714]

hey everyone, I'm looking for a tip on the best lemon meringue pie in the city. Personally, I can do without the meringue, but my partner in lemon inspired crime is a meringue addict.

Preferably in the east end of Toronto and also somewhere a little lesser known - yeah, I could hit up Dufflet's but I'm hoping for a real hidden gem.

any suggestions?

whoops! and the PIe Shack! 5 pieces of pie....

it's going to take a lot of beach volleyball to work those off! :)

The Tulip has a refreshing Lemon Meringue Pie. The whip cream is real and like everything else there is extremely cheap.

I like the lemon meringue pie at Yitz's.

Where would one find any whipped cream in a lemon meringue pie?

Oh yea! You are right indeed. I had a total lapse in my food memory. At any rate it did taste great. Not proper but great.

And everything tastes like crap., Maritime style.

I have a friend who swears by Penrose Fish & Chips' homemade lemon meringue pie. I haven't had it in years and can't remember what it's like, but I think the owner's mom makes it fresh once a week (is it Fridays?). I've been told you have to get there early for dinner a) to get in before they close and b) to get any pie.

Yes, it's only on fridays, and they don't do for takeout.... but it is fantastic!

Bex714... how can you not like the meringue! :)

Frangipane - S side of Dupont a block or two E of Spadina - has the most incredible lemon meringue tart, in both personal and family sizes. The confection features a short crust, tart filling and creamy meringue. A must. Check their opening hours.

hahaha it's not that I don't meringue, it's just that I looove the lemon!

so. Penrose, Frangipane, Yitz's and just because 3 slices might not be enough, I'll even try The Tulip's version! :)

I"m gonna need some stretchy pants!

I'm usually not a fan of lemon desserts at all, but I tried the lemon meringue at the Pie Shack in the Beaches and enjoyed it very much!
