If you're unsure how to get to their shop, just use your sense of smell around White Sands! You can smell the butter baking from a mile away!
The choice of pies - big ones and small ones.Big pies for $4.20
Small pies for $1.10 (3 for $3)
If you were to observe the above photo carefully, there were only 6 big pies left when I visited.
$4.20 eachAnd yes, I bought ALL of it.
I have paid them many visits in the past few years but never ever have I been fortunate enough to lay my hands on any of those big pies. I'd proceed to ask the owner if they had any big pies left, but her answer never changes - they only bake a few big pies a day and once sold out (trust me, they really do run out fast!), they won't make more for sale, unless you give them a ring at least an hour in advance to place your orders. They'd then bake those big pies specially for you, but there's a minimum order of "a few pies".
You may wonder why I have always been trying to lay my hands on those big pies - that's because they come in really special (beef) fillings that I have not been able to find anywhere else! And by the way, only the big pies come in these fillings, the small ones don't.
There are markings on the big pies itself to differentiate the contents, de-coded as follow:
- a single stroke: beef stew
- a "x" cross: black pepper steak
- no markings: steak & mushroom
Beef Stew Pie, dissected (my favourite!)
Black Pepper Steak Pie, dissectedI assure you the pies taste better than it already looks. The pastry looks like an intricate piece of art - it has many little fine layers in it but even after being puffed up, it's still ironically thin and crispy. Take a bite into it and be served with a piping hot crispy buttery treat with an abundance of ingredients. The fillings taste really authentic - if it promises you black pepper steak, you get real intense taste of black pepper on tasty and tender cubes of steak - no corner cutting.
I also took away 6 small chicken pies, which the owner took initiative to pack nicely and separately, to ensure that the pies do not stack up and crush on each other.
3 Chicken Pies in a pack(3 for $3)
This is their signature pie - must try!
Chicken Pie, dissectedAlbeit petite, there's a generous amount of delicious chicken ingredients filled to the brim - heavenly and worth the $1 spent.
It's no wonder why they're enjoying good business and are well-known in the area, although this is their only shop.
Remember to call them at 65851741 at least an hour beforehand if you want to buy the big pies!
