Singapore's Best Shepherd Pie

The Anatomy of a Perfect Pie

We judged over 50 bakeries on three non-negotiable pillars. Only the brave survived.

Cross section of a perfect shepherd pie

The Golden Crown

Not just mashed potato. It must be oven-baked to a deep golden crisp, creating a textural shell that protects the steam within.

The Gravy Matrix

The hallmark of a failure is watery gravy. The perfect pie has a thick, glossy reduction that clings to the meat, not the plate.

Ingredient Integrity

Frozen peas? Instant mash? Immediate disqualification. The best pies use market-fresh vegetables and premium cuts.

Viewer Discretion Advised

The Hall of Shame

We ate these so you don't have to. The path to perfection is paved with burnt crusts and soggy bottoms.

The Burnt Brick
0/10

The Burnt Brick

Carbon-dated to the Jurassic period. Requires a chainsaw to cut.

The Soggy Mess
-2/10

The Soggy Mess

A swimming pool of grease. Spoon required, straw recommended.

The Sad Freezer
1/10

The Sad Freezer

Tastes like cardboard and despair. Soul-crushing sadness in every bite.

⚠️3 Reasons Why Most SG Pies Fail

💧

The Soup Bowl

When you cut a slice and the filling floods the plate. A pie is not a soup.

🧂

Sodium Overload

Masking flavorless meat with excessive salt. A cheap trick used by 80% of brands.

🏜️

The Sahara Mash

Dry, flaky potato that chokes you. Mash should be buttery and smooth.
