Pi Day 2020 at La Ruota and The Pie Hole

We love Pi day! We celebrated it last year and the year before as well.

For 2020, Pi day is on a Saturday, so we had more time to explore and visit places.

We walked around 4th Avenue between Maple and Burrard Avenue to eat pie and pizza slices.

"I only have pies for you."

La Ruota

Authentic Neopolitan Pizza


This is a relatively new place in this neighbourhood. We grabbed a couple of pizza slices each and found it surprising! I'm also surprised how quickly the area filled up after we sat down.

The Pie Hole

The perfect place to celebrate the pi day is in a restaurant dedicated to pie. There was a line up to the door! I completely forgot that they were doing a $3.14 for a 4" pie promo. By the time we're in front, they announced that the 4" pies are sold out. It was crazy! As with our tradition, we got our "usual" apple pie, pecan pie (in this case it was pecan tart), and chicken pot pie.

Every year, I am amazed at how much better the pies we try are. By far, pies from The Pie Hole are the best.

Chicken Pot Pie

Look at how flakey that chicken pot pie is - I want more!

While enjoying our pies, hubby noticed the Guy Fieri neon sign on the wall. I didn't even know that this place appeared in Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. Go check it out Season 29 Episode 19.

I love pies and Pi day! I love Vancouver. Happy Pi day!
