Next to Ming Xin Cafe is Our Daily Bread, a bakery and cafe serving freshly baked breads, cakes and pastries.
Tempted by the pies in a display case, I bought a chicken pie. There are many other flavours, among which are minced beef, fish and leek pies. Each pie measures 10 cm in diametre. The chicken pie was sprinkled with some sesame seeds to distinguish it from the other pies.
Inside, the pie was filled with chicken, corn and carrot bits in a white sauce. It wasn't that creamy but it was moist. The pastry case was freshly baked and was slightly sweetened and it went quite well with the savoury filling. I would loved it if the filling was more compact, though.
Most importantly, for me, this pie had a homemade feeling to it. It looked like one of those pies that Mom used to make ;).
Everyone has a story to tell and I need to tell the stories in my life ...
