A Pie Thing | Damansara Utama, Uptown




With such gargantuan shop name, it is quite impossible to miss this cafe when you are travelling on LDP. A Pie Thing, sure enough is a place for pies..lol..so lame, ignore me.



We reached the cafe around 4.30pm, hoping to get some light refreshments before heading to our dinner. Probably 4.30pm is not considered as peak hour, we managed to secure one vacant table. Actually there is another unoccupied table at the end of the shop. But, those are higher tables with higher chairs. No matter where I go, I always have issues trying to balance myself on the higher chairs, especially with my heels on. So, without thinking twice, I chose the normal seats instead.


Basically there are two types of pies in this cafe, namely savoury pies and sweet pies. As we optioned Leonidas's Choco Latte which is already a sweet beverage, we decided to go for savoury pies this time. 

Step 1 : Choose your savoury pie fillings 



We picked the cheesy chicken and chicken with mushroom for our pie fillings. There are other fillings such as the pulled lamb, chilly cheese and chunky steak.



Step 2 : Choose your pie toppings. 




There are 4 types of toppings for savoury pies;
a) Pie+Gravy
b) Pie+Mash+Gravy
c) Pie+Peas+Gravy
d) The Mashacre (Pie+Gravy+Peas+Mash)

The Mashacre is the ultimate combination of a,b and c~ 

As we are not fans of peas, we chose Pie+Gravy and Pie+Mash+Gravy.

Step 3 : Choose your drinks 


Choices of drinks ranging from coffee, tea to soda. But as mentioned, we opt for Leonidas's Choco Latte instead. 

Step 4 : Order completed

 Collect your food tray once your number has been called. 


Food is served~

As a fan of potatoes, I devoured the entire mashed potatoes together with its gravy. But all left to me now are just the pie crust and filling. I found the remaining pie too plain without any gravy and they are just too dry for my liking. I feel they should provide add-on services for the gravy so that customers could request for more gravy if they want to.



The Leonidas's Choco Latte comes with a dark chocolate stick and a bottle of warm milk. What you need to do is to unwrap the chocolate stick and stir it in the milk. Then, the chocolate will start to melt and blend to become chocolate milk/chocolate latte.




Verdict : The pie seems to be very small portion but we were actually quite full after eating. We cannot proceed to our dinner after having them. So, we went to The Gardens and bought caramel popcorn from Delectable as our supper instead~
