This place is "new" to us (it's been in our bay-side town for about a year) so we thought we'd check it out. And this is not your full blown restaurant, but more like a small pub, one of these -
Now I didn't think I'd be a big meat pie fan. I could not have been more wrong. I had this -
It was fantastic! Seems I am a big pie fan. Must be something in the DNA as most of my ancestors came from the British Isles. The Frenchman in me played along because of this -

Ah, yes, the lovely liquid bread full of B vitamins and otherworldly goodness. Never a bad time to speak of Guinness!

I LOVE pub grub what with having lunch at a different pub (well, different in that we had a rotation of perhaps 30 pubs we ate at in our lil neck o' London) every day for three years while in Ol' Blighty. Can't say the same for Guinness, though. I'm much more of a Bitters kinda guy.
