Sydney :: P-P-Pie Face

Pie!

Before my Oz Adventure, my flatmate gave me just one mission: Eat my face off at Pie Face.

Pie Face Verdict: Go Meal: Late night pie run Location: 82-94 Darlinghurst Rd Potts Point, Sydney

"Eat my face off" is a common expression of mine. It makes no sense, and when used around those unfamiliar with my quirks, it's often received with confusion. A fellow German traveller looked at me quizzically and said "I just slowly translated that in my head...it...is...strange". Hah.

King's Cross

A popular chain in Australia, they sell pleasant little pies. Literally - they look pleased with themselves!

They look quite tranquil and definitely unaware that you're about to sink your sharp little teeth into their faces. After a good night in King's Cross we popped by the location next to the iconic Coca-Cola Sign and made a few choices. They also sell sandwiches...but who wants a baguette sammy at 3AM when you can have pie?

Lemon, beef, and chicken-mushroom pies were tried. The hot little treats were snarfed with no guilt towards the serene smiles. I never felt guilt from biting gummy bears (head first, of course), so I wasn't about to start with pie! The pies were okay...not too great. I imagine this was like the McDonalds of burgers. Either way, mission accomplished for my roomie.
