Product reviews...
I must admit, that when I was invited to review a pie, skeptical would be less than accurate. But as a gent who's willing to give anything a go, and an avid pastry fan, I put my name down straight away.
The pie arrived, and into the microwave it went. A couple of minutes later, accompanied by an absolutely amazing smell, my pie came out of the microwave.
It was love at first bite. The curry was definitely noticible, and impossible to miss, but not overpoweringly so. The pie was delicious, the flakey pastry as flakey as it can be when heated in the microwave. The texture of the contents was perfect, not too much gravy, or on the flip-side, not too little either. For a mince pie, suprisingly filling.
Definitely the best pie I've had in a while, if not a little pricey.
I think i'll be stopping off at the supermarket on the way home...
Random listing from 'Food'...
Zing, tang, boom!
When zingy, tangy raspberry meets smooth and creamy milk chocolate, sparks fly, making it a match made in heaven. It's a flavour combination that we Kiwis love.
We batch roast whole almonds to crunchy, nutty perfection, then lovingly double dip them in two layers of creamy milk chocolate. We then dust them with tangy raspberry to make your taste buds zing. Open up and say NOM. You're welcome.
