Happy Pi(e) Day! Free Toppings at Two Guys, Plus Four Places for Pie
For all you math nerds out there: Happy Pi Day! It's 3.14, which means it's time to commemorate that sexy, irrational mathematical constant of π. Even if you don't geek out on numbers, there's still reason to celebrate: a) who doesn't love an obscure holiday? b) Two Guys and a Pie are offering free toppings for pie ordered. The deal runs all weekend (pi is infinite, isn't it?) from today through Sunday's close at 11pm.
In the mood for more pie? Here are a few more of our top picks for a slice around town.
Pantry's Best
Their new storefront on the third floor of Ritan High Life serves a dope slice of apple pie (RMB 24) among an assortment of other rotating sweets.
