| | | British Pies have arrived
My first supply of pies from the Uk have arrived.
The main business is cooking and serving pies for fests, however if you would like some pies I can do small orders, if I can solve the delivery issue (I am in Meiringen). If there is interest I may be able to a Zurich home delivery once a week.
Let me know if anyone is interested and I can work on the logisitics.
The pies are 'purepie' from Kent and cost Fr8 each frozen (they are 250g so quite large). Available in Steak and Ale, Chicken Balti, Chicken & Ham, Lamb and Mint and Vegetarian.
Cooking time is 45mins at 185C.

PM me if interested.

Mmm, they look fantastic! Do you plan on making any deliveries to Suisse Romande? I really like the sound of the Haddock pie and the veggie options.
My tummy is rumbling already!

Thanks for the positive response and the very least I can do is to try a round.
I'm scheduling Wednesday next week as a day of delivery and yes I will go via Zug. It is now simply a question of logistics.
I will need the order, an address for delivery and a contact number. If you could indicate what time is impossible for delivery and then I can work out the schedule. I'll ring/email to confirm what time I think I can get to you to check that this is okay. If you are in apartment can you let me know if parking is nearby or not.
You can order by PM here or ring the shop (h3d) in Meiringen 033 971 2700 and they will take the details. (09.00-12.00, 14.00-18.00 Tuesday to Saturday)
For orders under 6 pies I think I need to charge a Fr5 delivery charge on this occasion as a contribution to transport costs.
Thanks once again, and I look forward to the feedback on your 'purepie' experience.

'Purepie' are testing a range of non meat pies at present. Once they have finalised the range I hope to bring more in ... subject to import duties etc.
