Granny Smith Apple Pie: Grandma's Taste, Featured by Creators [Press Recommendation]

Aug 17, 2013

Granny Smith (1-46-10 Shimouma, Setagaya-ku, Tokyo) is a small apple pie specialty shop located near Setagaya Park.

Based on the concept of "Grandma's Taste," each apple pie is carefully handcrafted, boasting a nostalgic, comforting, and simple flavor. Since opening in February of last year, the shop has been a hot topic among models and fashionistas. Furthermore, the shop has collaborated with lifestyle journalists and participated in events such as Ease Creators Market, which bring together fashion brands and creators, attracting the attention of discerning customers.

The shop offers four classic varieties as well as three seasonal limited editions. The French Damande, filled with plenty of almond cream, offers an exquisite combination of moist, sweet cream and juicy stewed apples. Other popular choices include the addictive Dutch Crumble, with its crispy crumble and a hint of bourbon, and the less sweet Classic Rum Raisin, which is said to be popular with men. Another popular item this season is the slightly sweet and sour, refreshing "Ricotta Cheese and Blueberry Apple Pie" (available only until September 8th).

Each pie is packed with fresh apples delivered directly from producers in Aomori, making it extremely satisfying to eat. Not only will you enjoy the deliciousness of the apples, but this dish will also allow you to discover a new side to apple pie.
