Piroshky Piroshky, a famous Seattle bakery, is delivering sweet and savory hand-crafted Eastern European pastries to San Diego this holiday season.

Driving the news: The iconic bakery in Pike Place Market is popping up next month on its anniversary tour of the U.S.

How it works: Pre-order online to pick up assorted hand-held pies and treats at their pop-up at Elks Lodge #168.

  • Order a minimum of $50 of baked goods by Dec. 3 at 2pm.
  • Pick up is Dec. 5 from 5-7pm at 430 Jackson Dr. in San Carlos.

Details: Best-selling menu items include: Beef & cheese piroshky, the chocolate cream hazelnut roll and smoked salmon pâté piroshky

  • Most pastries cost $5.25 or $7.25.

What they're saying: Get the cinnamon cardamom braid.

  • "This subtly sweet pastry is the standard by which I judge every other cardamom-laced baked good," Axios Seattle's Melissa Santos wrote.
  • "Almost none measure up, and none can match the combination of not-too-sweet, not-too-spiced filling, crunchy hazelnuts and tender dough."

Of note: The bakery was featured on Anthony Bourdain's "No Reservations."
