Sweetie's Pie Diner opens Tuesday

Here's a quick peek inside Sweetie's Pie Diner (1822 Spring Garden St.), which'll open to the public this coming Tuesday, Oct. 13. (Meal Ticket first told you about the project back in August.) Owner Stephanie Thaw, who built out the interior herself, is offering an all-vegetarian lineup of sweet and savory pies, primarily for lunch and dinner; breakfast (coffee, muffins, mini pies, etc.) will be grab-and-go style. Pies and salads will change daily. (Check out the opening menu after the jump.) One cool feature of the interior � a auto-rotating cylindrical display case (second pic) Thaw calls "Doggy TV." A Brazilian friend of the baker told her that they're a staple of caf�s in Rio de Janeiro; the spinning food tends to put street pooches in a salivating trance, hence the name.

Opening hours: Tue.-Thu., 8 a.m.-8 p.m.; Fri.-Sun., 8 a.m.-10 p.m.

This is going to make night classes at CCP much much easier.
