Elijah Pies (Tanjong Pagar)

Ugh, why did I only just found out about Elijah Pies’ savoury selection?! Love love love the Tomato Prawn Bisque Pie ($14.90/ 4”) which I had a few weeks back. A little pricey but the buttery, flakey tart base went superbly well with the comforting creamy tomato-infused sauce that was simmered with tiger prawns. Who knew that tomatoes would go so well with prawn bisque? Tangy, sweet, savoury. There were quite a few chunks of sweet prawns which was great. Finished with a dash of parsley, the dollops of spiced arrabiata puree really added that extra oomph. The Iced Matcha Strawberry ($7.90) was yummy too.

Nice latte art and coffee is not bad too

Not too sweet yet the filling is smooth.. nice!!!

Got the pie fresh out of the oven. Loved the top crust, very flaky and rich. Personally, I felt that I would better if there was more filling (and scallops) and the bottom crust was abit too thick. On the other hand, it maybe necessary to maintain the integrity of the pie.

Would I get it again? Unlikely

Pretty small portion for the price but it’s good for hot weathers. Takes some effort to stir the thick syrup into the drink. Quite citrusy but not sour

Newly-occupying a warm and cosy space in Tanjong Pagar Plaza, Elijah Pies has been on my list of desserts to try for quite some time now ever since they started to trend during circuit breaker. We headed over on a Saturday afternoon and were first in line, but due to the limited seatings we waited for about 15min before being seated.

Spoilt for choice by the extensive options of pies, both sweet and savoury, we finally settled on the signature Wild Berry Lavender Pie ($7.90), the Warm Apple Pie ($12.90), and an Iced Yuzu White Tea ($7.90). The Lavender Pie was true to its name with strong Lavender flavours that doesn't cross into the territory of air fresheners, and also wasn't overly tart with just a right amount of berry taste. We also loved the Apple pie which had buttery, flaky pastry and was topped with thin apple slices. Apple chunks also gave the sweet apple pie filling with some bite. Overall, both pies were splendid! On the other hand, the Yuzu White tea was unmemorable and frankly wasn't worth the price.

Come at a less busy time to avoid waiting in line for long, or just takeaway some pies and have a picnic nearby. Will definitely return to try the other pies!
