| - In a sea of Indian joints, I think Pie Guyz deserve some props for doing something a bit different from everyone else!
It's a small little shop, can't remember if there's even any seating, but as soon as you walk in, you will see pies staring back at you. Everything is labelled, so there's no guessing games.
On the left, there are Indian-influenced pies, i.e. Chicken Vindaloo (spiciest), Butter Chicken, Lamb Curry. And on the right, more British standards, i.e. Steak & Kidney, Potato/Cheese/Onion. You know, the boring stuff...just kidding!
There are also veggie/kebab roll options as well. Unfortunately, for those of you who are coming in to satisfy that sweet tooth, you won't find it here. :( Prices vary, but they range from $4-5 for a 5"-ish sized pie. Great price point for a snack/pre-meal/craving satisfier!
I got the Butter Chicken, which is supposed to be a top seller, and it did not disappoint. You can tell that the ingredients are fresh, flaky, not frozen. Nicely seasoned and not too heavily salted.
Tip: Consume shortly after purchasing. I ate mine the day-after and I suspect that it was better yesterday 'cause I had to reheat in the micro!
Btw, I wished that Yelp would change the category. No idea where "South African" is from 'cause the dude that I spoke to mentioned nothing about a SA influence!!!
