Beef and Horopito Pie


This delectable pie is a culinary delight that tantalises the taste buds with its rich and robust flavours.

$14 ($22 as a meal)


At its heart lies succulent pieces of tender, perfectly seasoned Maniototo beef that have been slow-cooked to perfection, ensuring they are juicy and bursting with savoury goodness.


What sets this pie apart is the inclusion of horopito, a New Zealand native herb known for its distinctive, earthy, and mildly spicy taste. The horopito infuses the beef with a unique and tantalising pepperiness, adding a touch of sophistication to this classic comfort food.


Encased in a flaky, golden-brown pastry shell, each bite is a delightful contrast of textures and tastes. The buttery and crisp pastry provides the ideal vessel for the beef and horopito filling, ensuring a satisfying combination of flavours and mouthwatering juiciness in every mouthful.


Whether enjoyed as a hearty lunch or a comforting dinner option, the beef and horopito pie is a culinary adventure that showcases the harmonious marriage of flavours, making it a must-try for food enthusiasts seeking a delicious twist on a traditional favourite.


Served either on its own or as a meal on thousand-layer potatoes with seasonal veges.
