Pies and Coffee finally beckoned one weekend when none of us felt up for travelling islandwide for eggs benedict or pancakes. As perfect as brunch should be with them both, a change is good once in awhile.
Takeaway anyone? There is a selection of pies and cakes for takeaway.
Help yourself corner.
The range that we ordered to share. There are two types of pies available - pastry shell as well as potato crust.
Baked till golden brown, rather microwaved till warm and served with a salad and mash.
Alternatively, these other pies come served in an aluminium tin foil.
I spy a heart!
Duck Confit Pie ($9.95)
A pleasant surprise to find whole duck chunks in the pie though given the consistency of the pie, everything pretty much crumbled to nothingness. Tasted much like braised duck rather than duck confit.
Wagyu Beef Cheek Pie ($9.95)
Their best seller. This proved to be the sweetest of the lot. Wagyu where? It was merely tender beef with tendon in a pie.
Minced Beef Shepherd's Pie ($8.95)
Too bland for me and thankfully for ketchup and chilli sauce that saved the day. The gameyness of the meat was obvious as well.
Seafood Laksa Shepherd ($8.95)
I enjoyed this best despite our initial reservations. Rich laksa broth with chockfuls of scallops, prawns, fish and squid in one pie. I relished every bite of it, yummilicious! The only thing truly missing is laksa noodles and laksa leaves to make this complete.
Meh-dinary long black coffee.
Very average pies in a casual environment. I wonder how they survive with a trickling of customers on a Sunday morning, especially when Smith's Fish and Chips next door enjoys bustling business.
