A pie floater is a meal available in Australia, particularly South Australia which consists of the traditional Australian style meat pie sitting, usually inverted, in a plate of thick green pea soup. It is typically covered with tomato sauce and mint sauce and salt and pepper are also traditionally added to complement the dish. Another popular condiment is malt vinegar. The pie floater is typically purchased in the street from pie-carts as a late evening meal.
Famous quotes containing the word pie:
“It is the place where all the aspirations of the Western World meet to form one vast master aspiration, as powerful as the suction of a steam dredge. It is the icing on the pie called Christian civilization.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
