KANGA- AUSSIE MEAT PIES- *Her Persepective*

John and I recently found out that Kanga had finally opened their own shop. We first tried Kanga meat pies last year at a food festival, and we instantly fell in love with their pies!! We made it one of our must-go-to spots for John's birthday this past week.

Front of Kanga- 65 Duncan Street, Toronto

Meat Pies: The Canadian; The Traditional; El Diablo

Kanga's shop is located in downtown Toronto- only a couple minutes walk from Osegood Station. The shop is small with only about six chairs available for customers, and two benches outside. The place reminds me of a tiny bakery shop, and it smells like one too! You can smell all the pie goodness in the air. Again, the space the is small but I think they were able to set it up quite nice, and it fits their style of the food they are serving.

Everyone was really nice at the shop. It was really hard to choose what kind of pies we wanted to get, and the server was more than helpful making suggestions. Unfortunately not everything we wanted was available at the moment because they had run out of certain pies, but the server was quick to suggest an alternate- and we weren't disappointed!

We had three different types of pies.

"The Canadian:" Steak and Bacon, braised with Amsterdam Brown Ale

"The Traditional:" Minced beef in a beef and vegemite gravy

"El Diablo:" Pulled Pork in BBQ sauce with a potato top

Everything tasted amazing. The pie crust was nice and flaky, and all the fillings were bursting with flavour!. You can definitely taste how fresh all the ingredients were, and how fresh the pie was. Also, there was a good amount of meat in every pie portion! My favourite was The Traditional and the El Diablo (A definite must try if you go!). All the pies ranged between $7-$10, so trying more than once type wasn't too hard on the wallet.

Overall, great food and great spot! Definitely a summer favourite :)
