FAVORITE PIE
KEY LIME PIE GINA THE BAKER 213 MAIN ST ., RIDGEFIELD PARK ( 201 ) 870-6131
Honestly , you might have to go to the Keys to get a better key lime pie than the one baker Gina Constanza offers at bakery Gina the Baker in Ridgefield Park . Constanza gets the limes from — where else — the Keys in Florida and , for good measure , adds a bit of cream to the batter . This is awonderfully tart and deliciously ( not overly ) sweet pie that is not only sold at her brick and mortar store but Zabar ’ s and other New York City gourmet shops .
