  • @davidwil58
    @davidwil58 9 месяцев назад +5

    It’s not a pie, it’s braised steak with some puff pastry plonked on top. Chips didn’t look home made. Am sure it was ok but I think you went with the intention of giving it a ten so that’s what it got!
    Anyone else notice the lady in the background not eating but hogging a table? Go, and let someone else have the table when it’s busy!

    Hi mate. That looked lovely. The pastry and the filling seemed mouthwatering. I'm not a huge fan of carrots or mushy peas but i will still eat them if they're on the plate. I always put gravy on my veg too. I'm still going to give it a 10/10 just hecause of the pie and the price.
    I've just got back from Rhodes by the way and defeated my fear of flying i was telling you about. Lovely place. I think you'd like it over there as the weather was great and the food we had was fantastic. Especially the lamb, beef and Kofta dishes.
    Thanks for sharing mate as always👍🙂

    I once had a steak and ale pie like that with a flakey pastry top in a pub in York I can always remember it as I had a pint of Cameron’s Strong Arm with it. Sadly I’m not into my real ale anymore, I’m more of a cider/lager drinker now, but that steak pie did look good. What an excellent place to eat and drink. Those Ploughman’s looked the real deal it ever I saw one. Proper English grub abroad this place. Incidentally I use my iPhone 11 for filming and making videos. Nice vlog Lee.

The bread and butter to mop up the gravy is not just a Scottish thing, I'm English and grew up doing it as did many others, and still do, yum yum. I'd have needed more gravy on the meal though I think.

    I wasn’t expecting the pie to be like that with a piece of puff pastry on top of the meat. My mum used to make her own pastry (not puff pastry) and it really made the pie, just to die for. I would score it a 7 or 7.5 out of 10 due to the puff pastry.
