Eatzi’s keylime pie reviewed


I love a good keylime pie.

A keylime pie should be light but sweet, with a slightly robust tanginess that energizes the palette. The tanginess of the keylime should invigorate the palette while the sweetness should slowly linger in the mouth. A keylime pie is best eaten after a meat-laden meal.

Several years ago, I ate a spectacular keylime pie. Recently, I’ve been craving that same pie, but struggled to recall where I ate it.

Keylime pies are hard to find in Singapore. Fortunately, a good friend of mine told me that Eatzi sells keylime pies. I ordered one to help satiate my craving.

At $15, the keylime pie is quite affordable. However, you will need to order it in advance. Eatzi and Jack’s Place outlets do not typically carry keylime pies.

Unfortunately, this keylime pie was rather mediocre. The gelatin was too thick and it was too sour. The crust was solid, crumbly and sweet; just the way I like it.

The small dollop of whip cream with a chocolate circle was a nice aesthetic touch, but it didn’t really contribute to the taste. I would have preferred a lighter, airy dose of whipped cream.


The keylime pie from Eatzi leaves a lot to be desired. Aficionados will be unimpressed and newcomers disappointed. Eat it only if you have a terrible craving for keylime pie.
