Savoury or sweet; buttery or flaky; here's where to go the next time you're craving for the comforts of a good delicious pie.
Buttery and crumbly or light and fluffy, nothing quite hits the spot like pies when you're seeking some good old comfort food -- done well, it is delightfully crusty on the outside and heartily full of bite and flavour on the inside.
Here are 5 places to go for your pie fix the next time your craving strikes.
A Pie Thing
Since breaking onto the scene in 2014, A Pie Thing hasn't seen a drop in its popularity and we can see why given its generous portions of both sweet and savoury pies. The savoury ones come topped with mouthwatering mashed potato, peas and gravy too for a truly hearty meal each time and each are made fresh daily using only shortcrust pastry you're assured a rich and indulgent affair. Find them here.
The Humble Pie Co
Lovers of banoffee and durian pies will know The Humble Pie Co well, which started off as a humble online cake shop. While its dessert pies are the star, it also serves up a list of cakes like 'The Humblest Cheesecake', lemon poppyseed cake and carrot cake, alongside an equally impressive savoury menu of items like pumpkin ravioli and roast chicken. Pop by here.
The Crusty Nest
If you're craving for Australian-style pies, get your fix at The Crusty Nest, which came about after its founders returned from Australia and decided to bring with them the pies they fell in love with there. Steak pies are the bestsellers here but also holding their own are the chicken and mushroom pie and pie-zza (a clever pie and pizza cross), all of which sell out fast so go early. Visit them here.
Mr Pie Man
No time to head out for your favourite pies? Mr Pie Man can deliver fresh batches straight to you via a very well planned out website, no less. Finding its roots as a manufacturer of pastry products is a good assurance that it knows what it's doing. We're particularly intrigued by its chicken rendang pie as well as its curry chicken pie. Place your order here.
Pie Harbour
Lovers of puff pastry pies will delight in Pie Harbour's offerings -- its pies come with a beautifully golden brown puff pastry top and in a convenient rectangular shape, making it easier to eat on the go. Classic flavours like black pepper chicken and chicken and mushroom have recently been added with contemporary ones like spicy pineaple lamb pie and curry lamb pie. Browse their offerings here.
