Mr. Pie Man: Too Good Not To Share

Image
There are people who eat, and then there is me who look at what we are eating. Currently on my mind, good old fashioned pies. Every now and then, I get in the mood for a decent pie. I am always reminded of a favourite scene in Men In Black where K tells J, "You gotta let the pie work slick." Back to pre-pandemic days, I used to have my pies at Gloria Jean's or at Hilton Hotel. Ladies and Gentleman, imagine my surprise when I found out their pies are supplied by Mr. Pieman! And you can get them directly from them too. So it was when I came across a random post on Facebook advertising about the availability of locally made pies, I reached out and found myself invited to their headquarters to have a good look at their operations.

San Francisco Coffee 1st Floor, Citymall. San Francisco Coffee is actually opened by my church member and he has got the franchise for the whole East Malaysia which includes Sabah and Sarawak. We always like their special-recipe Chicken Mushroom Pies as the pies are always fresh. Any pies that are more than 3 days old will be thrown into dustbin as they are considered "expired". We also use to order their chicken mushroom pies for occasions like birthday or cell group. His daughter can bake very good chicken mushroom pies but unfortunately she is not baking it that often. Most of the time the pies are baked and made by their staffs. Coincide she got the baking mood that special day and baked a bunch of chicken mushroom pies and sent us few. :) The Chicken Mushroom Pies were still fresh and HOT (just out from oven) when they reached my house. They smelled so 'buttery' (Anchor brand of butter is used for their pastry). Made everyone of us drooling....... Couldn't wa...

The Marmalade Pantry, ION ORCHARD SINGAPORE

Image
The Marmalade Pantry is a bistro located at level 3 Ion Orchard. The concept of this restaurant is very similar to "Delicious" that we have in KL minus the asian offerings. Having heard mix reviews of this place before, it is only right to give this place a try. We made a reservation for 2 at 8pm on a Friday night for dinner. The good thing about its location is the open concept of the restaurant which allows you to have a full bird's eye view of heel throttling ladies in their Chanel's and Louboutin and their shopping bags. Its not hard to spot someone famous here. After all it is ION, a similar concept to Pavilion in KL. I think the flower on the table added a nice homely touch to my dining experience. My dining companion ordered the crabmeat linguini with pine nuts, tomatoes and chilli which she throughly enjoyed. The linguini was al dente and it was the right blend of taste. However she did commented that it was different from the one Delicious served which wa...
