lamb and mint pie from harrods (london)
harrods
87-135 Brompton Road
Knightsbridge
London
SW1X 7XL
i had to go to harrods while i was in london, because i saw on their website that they carried hello kitty baby perfume. since it was going to be carmen's birthday right after i got back home, i decided that hello kitty baby perfume was just what she needed. she loves hello kitty, and she loves babies! and the perfume is like a combination of the two!
after getting the perfume from the children's section, we wanted to wander around the food area. i saw that they had little meat pies, and i was sold. i got a lamb and mint one, and matt got a lamb and coriander one.
the next morning in the office, i heated my lamb pie up in the strange and complicated uk microwave, while the other people in the office were shocked at my choice of breakfast food. i really didn't understand that, i mean, the english breakfast that all the breakfast places boast about has maybe 3 types of meat, eggs, toast, and a whole highland cow thrown in. but everyone kept saying "a meat pie for breakfast?" as if it was the most unusual thing they'd ever seen. but they were jealous of how good it smelled. all lamby and minty.
and that's how it tasted too. the crust was kind of dry, so i didn't finish all of it, but the lamb filling itself was a very nice way to start my work day. i wonder if it would have been better if it hadn't sat in our is-it-closed-or-is-it-open hotel room fridge all night, wrapped only in a little paper. it seemed like it needed more juice!
