On a Friday Stu usually has a half day at work and when he's finished we always meet up, go for a look around our local auction and then go for lunch to a little cafe nearby. The food is always so good, it's just breakfast things and burgers but they have now started selling different things and a few weeks ago we noticed pies and Stu was determined to try them out.
He did on Friday and said it was the best steak pie he's had in a long time, the chips and mushy peas were good too but the the bonus was all the gravy! Usually it's either poured on already or the tiniest of jug when we eat out. I would have said he was given enough for two people, of course he used it all, he does love gravy. lol
It sounds like Friday afternoons are an important time for you too to have some time together. Lunch w/o kids is perfect. I am looking at your photo which is a nice one BTW and I must say I've now seen mushy peas. I always thought they would look just kind of like that. I read cozy mysteries set in the British Isles and characters want mushy peas. I just figured they would be mashed green peas. Do you do something else for flavor or are the peas just cooked to mushiness? They don't looked mashed.
ReplyDeleteThat does look a good pie x #mysundaysnapshot

ReplyDeleteWhen I visit the UK, one of my favourite things to eat is the pie. This looks simply delicious!!
