Food Glorious Food!

Haydens pies have really dropped the ball this visit, got two pies yesterday, a Stroganoff one and also the Roast chicken, bacon, spring onion and cheese., the Stroganoff one was ok and waa chock full of meat and mushrooms but it was not very hot at all, still nice but the chicken one was only luke warm so the inside white sauce filling was claggy and not enjoyable at all, better halfs was the same, hopefully this was only a once off but i didnt enjoy the visit yesterday much at all.

This can be one of the problems when eateries become so popular and they need to produce large amount of their product. I've heard that Hayden's will sell more 1000 pies on most Saturdays and that figure doubles during holiday periods and long weekends.

The biggest issue for small businesses on the south coast is finding good reliable staff. The talent pool is quite small and most people want part time work so they can enjoy the south coast lifestyle.

With that said, I had a Cheese and Bacon Pie during the week and it was awesome!

Yeah it was pretty busy yesterday and all the pie displays were full, maybe had to many in there and they didnt warm as quickly. The Chicken one is my favourite and thats why i was disappointed with it yesterday.
Had a nice feed of Gurnard, Morwong and chips from Burrill Lake fish shop today, fish was perfectly cooked, still full from it.

I love a good curry pie horrie.
There is a bakery in Revesby & another one at St Johns Park that do beautiful curry pies.
So nice during the winter.

Like Bates horrie your palate is far superior to mine.
When I read what you have cooked or what you have eaten when you go out has me so envious of you.
Seriously man you eat like a king.
Youre such a foodie.

They're all pretty simple dishes to make and I have loads of time these days. YouTube is great for improving your cooking skills!

I'm lucky to catch the fresh crayfish, squid, abalone, muscles, fish etc and the recipes aren't complicated. My sisters a chef and helped me with the basics years ago.
