What does “pie” mean in the title of previous sentence?

I once wrote a sentence:

“I will go to a restaurant for pie”. I hear the same sentence. I will have an affair with it.” What will be the recipe? How?

Native speakers didn’t correct this sentence. What do you do when you don’t know what you mean by “no”? Can someone tell me if I will go to a restaurant to eat a pie? Is that sentence right? Can you explain to me what the first sentence of a sentence means to you?

How can I apply?

I am going to a pub for pie!

In a sentence, there is nothing wrong with it. I imagine the speaker will soon be seated in a restaurant, ordering a slice of pie. We should be asking to serve some good pizza to go. For example, is cheese a tasty alternative to steak?

The preposition for is probably used to show the purpose.

for (#8) -used to show purpose or function

Maybe, a similar sentence would be – I’ll go to a garden for a jog.

If you go to restaurant for something, the most common word that could be used there is some dish isn’t it? How do I say, to eat pie surely makes better sense but this one could be a formal or informal way of speech. Let natives write their views.

If I say “Made in America” in American language, it’s correct. What are people saying “Let’s go for pizza” instead of saying “some/a piece of pie” according to the conversation they tend to have tonight? All these words are also considered uncountable, therefore don’t need the indefinite article a/an.
