It's special due to its blend of adzuki red bean paste and mochi sticky rice, creating a rich, chewy filling with traditional Japanese sweetness – perfect for moon-viewing.

Thai pineapple is renowned as some of the finest globally, and the pie was brimming with a delectable, subtly tangy, and sweet pineapple filling made from authentic, fresh pineapple chunks. I was genuinely amazed by the pie's exquisite flavor. It steered clear of artificial pineapple flavorings often encountered in lower-quality pastries and instead embraced the genuine, refreshing taste of real pineapple pieces.
The crust boasts a delightful crunchiness, setting the stage for what lies within—a vivid, almost fluorescent purple filling teeming with delectable taro-infused potatoes. The taro imparts a unique, non-cloying sweetness, distinct from the ordinary sweet potato, and its grainier texture contrasts with the smoothness of apple pie. Inside, the thick taro sauce introduces a delightful complexity of flavor without overwhelming sweetness, elevating the pie's overall taste profile. Moreover, the striking purple hue makes it a visually stunning and exceptionally rare culinary treat.
