The best place for pork pies is any Murdoch publication - in my opinion.

When I first lived in the UK, I just couldn't believe it then I first saw adverts for

PUKKA pies (apparently it isn't pronounced like p*ke) - hmmm my sentiments entirely.

I know but it is the slang for "proper" as I understand it.. (phonic, never know how it spelt!)

A la Jamie Oliver of course - but he wasn't around in 1970!

I think this saying started before 1970 and it came from the Indian when British rule there. I find this reference. For some slang in English, you would never have guessed it.. especially if you are not from the area.. eg. "Dog and bone" is the telephone!

Best pies I ever found in the UK was Pieminister they have several locations where you can eat them freshly made, Waitrose in the UK sell them and you also order them for delivery to home

YES! Their Matador and Heidi pie's are heaven.

Also, Square Pie are very good. They have a few shops around London (Spitalfields and Selfridges)

that is good to know but I think Waitrose does not deliver to Zurich, yet!

With Easyjet being so annoying at times, I might have died of dehydration due to my jaw cannot be shut while trying to get to sample their pies in London!
