The Sagada Lemon Pie House: February 2009

Jenn Sy shared to us this wonderful photo of Sagada Acorns. We thought it was so beautiful that we asked her if it was okay for us to feature it in this blog. So many crazy adjectives describe her: an adventurous traveler, a food enthusiast, a great photographer, a blog addict, and a strong woman.

"I love Sagada, been going back and forth since the mid-90's. I love the fresh scent of pine air, that's why. I will never tire of this charming quaint town. I was told to go to Lemon Pie House by some friends I bumped into in Sagada last December. The place is impressive and very cozy. I can just stay there, read my book while sipping coffee and having a few slices of your pies. I do have several photos of Lemon Pie House. Will forward as soon as I get them organized. More power. Jenn"

Visit Sagada - "Sagada Lemon Pie House surprises unsuspecting tourists with its fare of unconventional desserts and pastries."

iCordero - "I have not tasted a lemon pie before but I must say it was one of the best pies I have tasted not to mention that it was only 20 pesos per slice."

About Us: A Brief History

The Sagada Lemon Pie House is owned by Joseph Daoas. It was Joseph's mother, Elena Daoas, a native from Candon, Ilocos Sur (married to Bartolome Daoas, originally from Poblacion, Sagada) that started it all. It was her original recipe and she passed it to Joseph that later improved the recipe to make it taste even better.

It took 12 years for Joseph to perfect the recipe. He experimented to get the right amount of flour for the crust and the right texture for the filling. It was five years ago when the lemon pie reached its greatest improvement. But of course, it didn't end there.

In 2008, the Sagada Lemon Pie House was opened to the public for the first time, but it wasn't a hit. So Katrina decided to bring her lemon pies to the public market, downtown Poblacion, to get better sales. Soon, more and more people buy their pies, and the rest is history. Nowadays, you can taste some of our lemon pies in local stores and restaurants in Sagada. Just ask where the Sagada Lemon Pie House is and anyone from town can tell you where it is. We also serve fresh brewed coffees, egg pies, and even pastries.

The Sagada Lemon Pie House is located in Atey, Daoangan, Sagada. You may ask us your questions, comments, suggestions by calling us at mobile number (63) 907-7820360.
