Wagamama, the Japanese-inspired British restaurant chain, has teamed up with Willy’s Pies to introduce an Asian-inspired pie to its menu, just in time for British Pie Week.
In a delightful collaboration with Willy’s Pies, the restaurant has concocted a harmonious fusion of two beloved British dishes, resulting in the Chicken Katsu Pie.
This delectable creation boasts tender chunks of chicken, nestled alongside a medley of fresh vegetables, all encased in a flaky pastry. But that’s not all—Wagamama’s zesty Katsu side salad and a delightful serving of “pink pickles” accompany this pie, elevating it to a symphony of flavours.
For our vegan diners, fear not! The menu also features a plant-based pie, generously filled with earthy mushrooms, tangy kimchi, and wholesome edamame. It’s a celebration of taste and inclusivity, where every bite tells a story of culinary innovation.
Willy’s Katsu Pies—a name that evokes both curiosity and hunger—has become the talk of the town, and for good reason.
But who is this mysterious Willy, you ask? Well, dear reader, let me take you on a delectable journey through flaky crusts, succulent fillings, and a dash of pandemic-induced inspiration.
Willy’s pies were born from the crucible of furlough. Picture this: Will, the creative mastermind behind these savory delights, once toiled in the bustling kitchen of the renowned London eatery, Brat. His culinary prowess knew no bounds, but fate had other plans. When the pandemic swept across the globe, leaving restaurants shuttered and chefs adrift, Will found himself furloughed—a word that became both a lifeline and a curse.
So whether you’re a devoted carnivore or a veggie enthusiast, Wagamama’s pie offerings are here to tantalise your taste buds and warm your soul. Bon appétit!
