Well... I don't know what was in the water yesterday, but the keyboard warriors were out in full force! πͺπ
Honestly, some of the comments gave us a right chuckle.
π₯§ First up, we have Ness the "Pie Blower" π¬οΈ
Whilst Jodie was filming a little shop update for everyone, a pie happened to reach its time in the oven. Ness removed this glorious golden creation and somehow was accused of blowing on it!
Apparently that's how 5-star food establishments cool their food now... standing there for 30 minutes puffing away on freshly baked pies. π€£
Sadly for the conspiracy theorists, if you watch the video back you'll notice there isn't a single blow in sight. Not one. But at least someone got the opportunity to air whatever grudge they've been carrying around.
π· Next, we have Pie Lady: The Customer Stealers.
This one was an absolute corker.
Because we cooked a "free range" pork loin joint, we were apparently stealing customers from another business that sells hot pork sandwiches.
A few things to clear up:
1οΈβ£ We didn't realise only one establishment in Withernsea was allowed to cook pork for sandwiches π
2οΈβ£ We've been cooking pork since the day we were born π
3οΈβ£ Does anyone remember the Pie-guette? Hot pie fillings in a baguette? We were doing that long before it was cool. π
4οΈβ£ Our pork loin isn't served hot. Its roasted, cooled and sliced so customers can use it alongside our pie bar for sandwiches or grazing boxes ππ
5οΈβ£ We have plenty of our own ideas, are exceptionally busy and a little more established than having to go around copying anybody else π
Anyway, thank you to the hundreds of lovely customers who support us every week. β€οΈ
We'll continue doing what we've always done:
Making great food, serving our community, and apparently running the world's first pie-cooling-by-breathing operation. π¬οΈπ₯§π
