Jeff and Todd

Where it all began...

  1. So Jeff and I love a good pie. Travelling as we do with Osler, now and again we've had the chance to sample the local fare. Not the mass produced variety, but the little bundles of love you can only get in a local pie shop or bakery.
  2. This all started as a running joke. As we made our way back up the Bruce Highway to the Sunshine Coast after yet another Brisbane trip, we passed "The World Famous Beefy's Pies". Resisting the urge, we vowed to save our Beefy's for a special occasion, perhaps our first sale. Everytime we passed Beefy's en route to home, we gazed longingly out the window, the car almost steering itself down the offramp. But we held firm, even when our colleagues threatened to sabotage our mission.
  3. With our first sale behind us it was time to break our duck. Beefy's didn't disappoint. In the glorious afternoon sunshine in May, Jeff tucked into a chunky beef, while I got stuck into my favorite, a steak, bacon and cheese. Mmmmmm.

    1. And so it began. Our mission now to document our Pie Cruise as we travel our home state, our nation and the world at large.
    2. Our mission? A parallel, cross-over systematic analysis of selected pie shops in our Osler journey

Yatala, Queensland

  1. May 31st 2016 

    Today saw some of the Melbourne team visit the beautiful sunny state for some meetings on the Gold Coast. Madhava, our Business analyst, joined Jeff and I on the trip back to Noosa, and we just couldn't seem to stop the car as it left the Pacific Highway at the Yatala turnoff. It was almost like the car was on rails.
  2. Feeling in need of a bit of a kick start, I took the Curry Pie option, Jeff went for the Beef and Onion, and for Madhava its the vege pie. We're going to have to crack the windows for the rest of the trip back it seems.

  4. As we chow down, Madhava asks "Why do they call it the World Famous Yatala Pie Shop?" 
  5. "Not sure", replied Jeff, "why?"  
  6. "Because no one in India that I know has ever heard of it".
