It’s pie season, y’all! Colder temperatures combined with holidays make the perfect recipe for treating yourself to a slice (or two) of pie. While there’s nothing better than a homemade pie, you don’t always have the time to make one – that’s where Lea’s Lunchroom comes in. This iconic eatery has been serving up some of Louisiana’s best pies since 1926, and they show no signs of slowing down any time soon. Let’s check it out.
You’ll find Lea’s Lunchroom over in the tiny town of Lecompte, Louisiana.
