This thing of beauty is not a holding pie.

 

This deserves fine bone china and cutlery.

 

No sauce.

Roger that, Royal Albert Rainbow china, Community Coronation Silverware and Mikasa Stephanie Crystal. Now all we need is the darned pie, and a nice bottle of Riesling to wash it down.

That's a shame, Leigh. I remember being taken to one somewhere in Glen Waverley or Mount Waverley many years ago with a group of business colleagues, one of whom was Chinese. It was excellent and we got to try some very interesting dishes. I guess things have changed since then.

 

I'm not fond of dogs roaming around restaurants either but it's quite common in parts of Europe. 

Watch out for your dog vanishing in the Chow restaurant, it could end up as dog in black bean sauce or dog chow mein. Dog is a delicacy in the Far East you know and in Peru where I have seen it offered at roadside grills.

That’s the one thanks Les, they tried to open one on the New England Hwy at East Maitland, it flopped, no idea why, perhaps people didn’t realise it was the same mob.

That could be because Blakeney's Gourmet Pies are at East Maitland. Very filling and tasty Pies. My favourite is their Pepper Pie.

I went to a restaurant in Shanghai once that had dog on the menu. No, we didn't try it.

 

I also know someone married to a Vietnamese wonman whos uncle farms dogs for food.

So the pepper pie is chunks of beef with a peppercorn sauce in it like Steak au poivre? No bell peppers involved?

That Pie looks awesome By the Bay

Either chunks of beef, or beef mince which is the way my bakery makes them with a ton of cracked black pepper in the mix.

I prefer the chunky style. There are no bell peppers harmed in the making of a pepper steak.😉

I like their potato and pea, the peas go between the beef and the spud. They also do a nice steak and vegetable.

Harry’s are also now doing a chicken and leek, will need to give it a try for something different.

Yes, I have tried that Mr Gut and it was delicious.

Bell peppers here are called capsicums.

Pepper is ground peppercorns, white or black. I like a lot of ground black pepper on my veges.

The base is a bit liable to split. Otherwise not bad.

I sometimes turn it upside down. The top is firmer.

Ideal environment for pies is NZ, cool winters, , need a curry pie in that list, bit of heat required.
