A cheeseburger with its meat, melted cheese, and vegetables—all fully cooked inside a golden pastry crust sprinkled with sesame seeds. This is the culinary offering from Groot La Tourte, which transforms fast-food and bakery staples into hearty pies.
Impressive savory variations
The centerpiece of this menu is the Burger Pie, priced at 17 euros. When cut open, this hybrid creation reveals distinct layers: a thick ground beef patty, melted cheddar, and layers of potatoes and cabbage, all held together by a pastry crust that replaces the traditional brioche bun. A meatless version is also prepared on-site. Priced at 16 euros, the Veggie Pie features layers of zucchini, sun-dried tomatoes, and cheese, offering a hearty, seasonal filling.
The restaurant applies this same layering principle to a classic French pastry with its Tourte Flan. Priced at 15 euros, this dish features a particularly thick and creamy flan filling, baked directly into the crust. The dessert’s massive size makes it difficult to finish alone; in fact, the portion is specifically recommended for two to three people.
All of these pies, whether savory or sweet, are packaged for takeout in special containers. Customers pick up their orders in the shop’s green bags before heading out to enjoy them right on the park benches in the surrounding squares.
