Birmingham City 3 - 1 Swansea City
St. Andrew's Stadium  -  Attendance: (only)7,470

I said at the end of the last entry that pie service always seems to be more of a challenge for Blues at evening games, so how did they cope this time......

 [sorry for the blurred picture, but I was hungry!]

Verdict:
As expected, not very well!

There were only Balti pies available (and only 5 of them left) when I really fancied Steak & Kidney. So straightaway, my pie-mood was low.

Starting with the middle, the filling was great. No arguments - Pukka (@PukkaPies) have nailed the Chicken Balti filling as far as I'm concerned.

But the pastry? 'Undercooked' would be 'understating' it!

You can even see in the picture that the centre hasn't risen. The top pastry was soft, not flaky. And the bottom pastry was soggy. And a soggy bottom is (almost) never good, in any context.

Slip-ups are allowed, but scoring has to be a terrible (and possibly even a little generous):

SCORE : 4/10

 

 

 

As with football matches, a poor pie showing can easily be forgotten by improving next time. So the pressure is on Blues!.

 

 

If anyone's off to the Reading match, please Tweet or DM me your own pie pic, score & review for inclusion.
