The Gourmet Pie Company

I've passed by this shop numerous times when I went out for lunch in my previous work. The logo and the interior of the shop make me think that the pie will be delicious. But they also make me think that the pie is expensive. And yeah, it is...

Finally, after so many times cancelling to buy, I bought one Chicken Mushroom Pie from the shop. They engrave the initials of the flavor on top of the pie. For Chicken Mushroom flavor, they engrave "CM" on it. The rest of their menu can be seen here.

Inside the menu, they provide canape, snack and hearty pies. I intended to buy the snack size as a trial. When I was in the shop, I didn't know which one is snack or the hearty size; they don't put any sign other than the flavor signs. All pies inside the display look snack size to me, so I just pointed there. How surprised I was when I paid, because that's actually hearty pie! Wow... $8 just for that size.. I felt brokenhearted. My money...
Argh, the marking on top of the pie is barely seen, but it's there.
But it was delicious. The chicken breast chunk was big and I don't know how, but the pie still had some chicken broth inside. I like it. It's best to eat it warm.

They provide meals inside the shop, but I don't know the price. For meals, they serve pies with 2 side dishes (from what I spied on the plate of the only customer eating there at the shop).

Though it's delicious, I think $8 for a pie is still too much. Well, maybe the prime location contributes in the expensive price. Afterall, it's in Boat Quay/Clarke Quay area where a lot of customers swarm in at night for a drink at nearby pubs and restaurants.

They have three branches and the one I went to is the Boat Quay branch.
