THIS week I, Bald Foodie Guy, tested out festive goodies sent to me by a local food app.
Barrow Eats sent me food from Barrow takeaway Deli.sh, which is based on Crellin Street.
They're a takeaway that serves up all sorts of heartwarming food.
I was sent a Christmas pie, a black pudding sausage roll, a scotch egg and a brownie.
It's that time of the year isn't it - Christmas is coming up!
First up to be tasted after being cut in half was the Christmas pie.
The pie is available for £2.30 and what they are is a pie with turkey, carrot, swede and gravy.
There is also a pig in blanket, sausage meat and stuffing with roast potato on top.
There was only a little bit of bacon on the pig in blanket, but it was there.
The pie was lovely and warm - what is not to love really?
These Christmas pies sell like hot cakes, believe it or not. They only sell them at Christmas.
I've had these pies before, but I haven't had them in a while. The last time that I had these pies was in 2018, and remembering them then they were absolutely gorgeous.
I was working in the shipyard and we would go out for a drive and get them for everyone - all of the lads.
We used to buy the whole shop! We'd bringing them back in a big box, about 50 or 60 pies.
They are absolutely gorgeous, so tasty. It's what you want at this time of year, isn't it? Comfort food with a little bit of gravy on as well.
Next up was the sausage roll with black pudding which costs £1.80.
The sausage roll was gorgeous - it was well seasoned and the pastry was lovely.
You really get a taste of the black pudding coming through.
It was beautiful, just beautiful. I love black pudding as well, I really do.
I was a lucky boy that day, because next up was a delicious scotch egg which can be purchased for £2.
You could see all of the spices when I cut the scotch egg in half.
I really couldn't fault it.
The outer casing was nice and crisp and it was seasoned well. Absolutely gorgeous.
Last but not least was the Cottage Bakery brownie for £2.20.
It was lovely and claggy, chocolatey and sweet.
It was sticking to the inside of my mouth, which is what you want isn't it?
Wow, what a treat that was!
