Would the Aldi frozen meat pies be the best?
My wife tried a meat pie for the first time ever 3 weeks ago on a Jetstar flight and she loves it. So I'm looking to procure more.
if your wife tried a jetstar meat pie and loved it then you absolutely cant go wrong from there. imagine if she tried a good one!!!! But seriously, if she liked that, anything will do.
Which is what I'm trying to achieve. 😁😅
Are we still talking about pies? 🤔
Yes, meat pies only, with no hidden meaning.
I will not engage in any discussions of explicit nature.
I honestly think getting one from a tried and true bakery is your best bet. Frozen ones don't cut the mustard anymore imo.
Thanks:) do you have any suggestions of a good bakery (less than 20 min from cbd) or just any should do?

They're cheap and reasonable. Not great, not bad, reasonably priced.
If you're going to get frozen pies get Balfour's. They are the best by far. Aldi's pies are a bit ordinary.
Thanks CEO will check this out too.
Trust me I pie once a week. The only pies from aldi that are worth it are the potato pies which are the same as shepherds pies.
Will grab some Shepherds Pie as well while I'm there.
I'll grab a bit of both plus Balfour as per above and see how she likes it.
