Thanks to Royer's Round Top Café, located in Round Top Texas, it is now possible to join their 'pie of the month club' to receive pie for life. That's right, LIFE! It should be noted that there are also smaller club memberships available, perfect for those with smaller budgets.
The cost for the club will be based on the pie lover's life expectancy. Owner, Bud Royer, is still working out the specific details, but he is more than confident that his idea will be a hit. Just ask his customers.
The café seats 40 patrons. It's located approximately an hour's drive from Houston and Austin. The Round Top is definitely not a run of the mill, small town, café. It has been described as 'a Texas country bistro serving gourmet comfort food.' It really doesn't get any better than that!
Menu choices include, but are not limited to: steaks, pork tenderloin, grilled salmon, a variety of pasta dishes, grilled stuffed quail, chicken breast and a menu just for kids.
Beverages include: beer, wine, homemade lemonade, raspberry ice tea, coffee and Coca-Cola products.
Royer, a.k.a. 'the pieman', purchased the café in 1987. Going in, he had no cooking or restaurant experience. But, with the help of his family, he achieved greater success with each passing year.
The pie menu is quite extensive. Flavors include: blueberry, apple, pecan, chocolate chip, cherry, buttermilk, pumpkin, coconut chess, peach, buttermilk delight and strawberry rhubarb. Several of these delicious pies can be ordered online.
