What's Adelaide's Weirdest Pie Flavour

Thankfully the days are long gone when the only choice for a meat pie was a boring old Balfours pie that had been in the warmer far longer than it should.

[ADVERT]Even the iconic Railway Station Pie Cart with its classic pie floaters has now been lost to grace the all encompassing exhibition at Old Tailem Town .

Bakeries are increasingly tempting consumers with fantastic fresh flavours. The Bite Me Bakery on Marion Rd is one example, offering a delicious Thai chicken pie with just enough chilli to be very convincing.


I have previously reviewed the Hyde Park Bakery and its unique chicken parmy pie, which I found to be convincingly authentic.

At the other end of town in Gawler, the very popular Gawler South Bakery is on my route whenever I pop up for some wine tasting , as the venison pie that they offer is very hard to find elsewhere.


Bacon and egg pies are often tasty, but can be a trifle heavy and stodgy. I quite like those available from Tasty Bakehouse at West Beach or the Forestville Bakery on Leah St, providing they have not been in the pie warmer for too long.

Weekend Notes food fanatic Yin-Yin recently suggested I try T he Village Baker at Black Forest, so I sampled one of their lamb shanks pies and found it delicious. The staff were friendly, and scored me a pie freshly baked from the oven. What more can you ask for?


I'm still on the hunt for something really weird though - most of the above are unusual or even rare, but the flavours are relatively mainstream.

So have you tried any South Australian pies that are very different?

Do tell us in the comments, what do you think is Adelaide's weirdest pie flavour?
