Tomorrow, October 27th, at 10am, the pie specialty store " Pie Face " from Sydney, Australia will finally open at Lazona Kawasaki Plaza. It is Duskin Co., Ltd., which handles that Mister Donut.


Pie Face was born in Sydney, Australia in 2003, and is now a popular pie brand with about 60 stores in 7 countries around the world. By the way, pies (especially meat pies) are traditional foods that are so familiar to Australians that they can be called "national dishes". It's like a rice ball in Japanese!

By the way, the main menu of pie face is, of course, meat pies and many other pies. The store that will open in Japan this time also has a lineup of rich savory pies with meat and vegetables and sweet dessert pies.


As the name suggests, the pie face pie is characterized by its cute "face". The pies have various facial expressions, such as laughing and having a muffled face, but in reality, they represent the contents in the shape of their mouths!

For example ...

● Shop's recommended "chunky steak" (390 yen / tax not included, same below)

A savory pie with a filling of diced beef cut into large pieces and seasoned with a rich gravy sauce. The shape of the mouth is the "S" of Steak.


The crispy, crunchy, delicate texture and surprisingly light pie dough has a scent of butter because it is layered one layer at a time each time you chew. The beef with plenty of it is soft but chewy, and it feels like you are eating steak . It has a sharp taste with black pepper from the first bite, and it seems to be addictive.


● My favorite "Chicken Mushroom" (390 yen)

My personal recommendation is the "Chicken Mushroom" pie with chicken, mushrooms and onions in white sauce. It's packed with thick and thick filling, and it's like a pot pie. The smiley mouth represents the "C" of Chicken.


The carefully simmered white sauce is rich and creamy. The mellow umami and moderate saltiness go best with the crispy buttery pie. Each ingredient is big, and the taste is perfect!



● No one dislikes it! "Avocado hamburger" (390 yen)

In addition to the same menu as the Australian store, Japanese original pies will also appear. For example, "Avocado hamburger" is one of them. Inside is a luxurious filling of hamburger and avocado seasoned with demiglace sauce. The mouth expresses the "H" of Hamburger.


A fluffy hamburger steak and a melting avocado welcome you when you cling to the crispy face. The sauce is rich and rich, with a slightly milder taste than the spicy chunky steak. It fills your stomach with a volume that seems to be a condensed one-plate dish.

● Japanese sweets become a pie! "Matcha Tanba black soybeans" (290 yen)

A rich matcha cream made from Nishio matcha from Aichi prefecture, which is characterized by its fragrant bitterness, and a filling that combines Tanba black soybeans. This is one of Japan's original sweets pies. By the way, there is no face.


The taste of matcha is so strong! The moment you bite, the bittersweetness and deep umami of matcha spreads throughout your mouth. Matcha is so serious that I am surprised. The chewy sweetness of black soybeans is also effective.

In addition to this, we have a lineup of pies that look and taste different. The types of pies offered are: If you get lost because there are so many, don't buy a jacket, but buy a face! Choose a face that looks like you or that suits your mood for the day.

● We are particular about coffee

We are particular about coffee as well as pies. Coffee beans that suit the tastes of Japanese people are imported directly from Australia and offered as "Pie Face Blend".

The pie face blend is characterized by its "smooth and rich taste". You can enjoy the scent reminiscent of cacao and rich bitter chocolate, the melting chocolate-like taste, and the faint acidity.


The Lazona Kawasaki Plaza Shop, which will open tomorrow (October 27), is a To go specialty store. On November 19th, a flagship store will open at Shibuya's shopping center "Shibuya Modi" where you can eat in.

At the Shibuya Modi Shop, side menus such as "a lot of ingredients" soup and alcoholic beverages such as Australian beer are also offered, so of course for lunch and snacks, "a little drink" that you can drop in on your way home from work. It seems that it can also be used!
