Is Pies-n-Thighs worth the trip to hella out of the way Williamsburg? For those who don't know, PNT is located on 351 Kent Ave (under the W-burg bridge) but is actually located on South 5th Street. There is no convenient subway stop. The L to Bedford is quite a distance and the J, M, Z to Marcy Ave is only five or ten minutes closer.
Fortunately I hitched a ride to PNT in a car, but sadly for brunch, where I could not take advantage of the much-touted pulled pork sandwich.
Instead, we had biscuits and gravy, a throwback to my days in Raleigh, NC, filling up on sausage-laden cream and flaky, buttery biscuits. The PNT version, as you can see, has large chunks of sausage, perhaps too large to my liking.
Of the chicken and waffles, only the chicken lived up to its reputation. While the chicken was good, it wouldn't make me come out here again. In addition, the buckwheat waffle couldn't live up to my ideal waffle: buttery goodness baked up into a crunchy layer of crust. Instead, it was mostly soggy and definitely lacking in flavor and texture.
