Me finding the pie nice means nothing by the way!
Your inner vegan is sounding defensiveā¦
Well, itās true that things will definitely taste different but I canāt really remember the difference now. Plus a lot of places offer a one size fits all type thing which ends up being gluten free as well, donāt think the Nero pie is but didnāt take much notice to be honest.

Define adequate.
There are about five different M&S ones - I know because Iāve been lifting the fucking boxes for weeks now. Obviously the St Pancras branch is only for you proles
There is a quite a nice version in the M&S cafes 
Iām going to visit all the independent cafĆ©s in St Albans and have a flat white and a mince pie. Because I can.
Frankly it starts quite well with the Exquisite Peacock Emporium. The flat white looks too big, but it has the required velvety texture. And thereās more to enjoy. Iād prefer more bite, sure,but Iām happy enough to drink it all.
The mince pie is decent. The texture is great - itās almost falling apart, with thin pastry well cooked. Itās not too sweet, but tbh itās a bit lacking in flavour. Also the mince is lacking in chunky bits. Itās a good start to my venture.

Todayās pie is from Leilaās shop in the East End. Very good! not too sweet, good bite to the pastry and you could really taste the fruit. No dusting on this one but it looked to have a little bit of an egg glaze. Best I have had so far.
