This is the real deal, imported from Oz, Four N Twenty Meat Pies. They pretty much have all the standard ones (Pepper Steak, Steak And Mushroom, etc).

Where to get these guys? Okay, leave the main exit at Ansan Station (Line 4), walk towards where all the S-E Asian marts are, a few blocks up the road, across from the Indonesian restaurant, there is a store that specializes in S-E Asian spices (super easy to find).

You can buy frozen pies to take home with you (5000 - 6000 won a pie), or you can just buy a freshly cooked pie right there out of the oven in the store!

Great place for the Aussies and Kiwis that are a little tired of eating American-style Western food here in Korea.

Being from North America I can honestly say nothing in Korea can be defined by American Style western food. I never saw sweet potatoes on pizza before I came here.

No, that place has closed down. Phillies in Noksapyeong sells pies at ridiculous prices, and they are always out of stock, so not much in the way of pies in Seoul.

Didn't someone post a couple months ago that the meat pie shop was out of business? Is it back?

That price is wrong. I sent my Ansan buddy down there this afternoon to sus it out and he said it's actually 4,000 for an individual pie or 5,500 for one with a coke as well. No signs of sausage rolls but I guess we'll have to make do.

Geez, I might kill for a steak and mushroom pie but I doubt I'll part with $6AU for one.
