Almost 400 pies later, the winner of the sixth annual KCRW Good Food Pie Contest hung on one existential question: "What is a pie?"
There was a hardline contingent who insisted that a pie not only had to have two crusts (a pie with one crust is a tart!), but also be served from a pie plate, not a regular plate.
Still, after a brief but spirited philosophical discussion, the judges finally decided that, in the end, good taste was what mattered. And that nothing tasted better than Allison Brooker's Chicken Pot Pie Galette — even if it was served on a dinner plate —and so it was crowned Best in Show.
Alina Bezdikian and J.P. Bolles took home the coveted Best Crust award.
This year's event was held at the Fowler Museum at UCLA in baking temperatures. But that didn't discourage many entrants. There were 139 pies in the fruit category alone.
