Hide AdDuty manager David Kerr said: “Our chef likes to mix things up a little, and thought this fortified wine would be a very good basis for a pie - but we only really intended it to be a special for this weekend”.
The restaurant serves the dish as a main course, rather than a pie you would take away from a butcher’s shop, but with an £8.95 price tag - about average for a mainstream restaurant - there have been no shortage of takers.
