Kyle's Good Finds (2-7-10 Arai, Nakano-ku, Tokyo; (03) 3385-8993) has long been the go-to place for American-style baked goods in Tokyo. Owner Kyle Sexton, originally from Pennsylvania, has been baking carrot cakes, cheesecakes and, yes, pumpkin pie at his tiny corner shop in Nakano for over 20 years. Some are available by the slice at his shop, or you can have a whole pie made to order.
