Any of you Dundee types know if you can still get Wallace pehs in Dundee ?. I mourn the day Wallace disappeared from the shelves of Tescos etc.

Pehs: Dundonian plural of 'pie'.

"Fa a' the peh?"

"Ah a' i' a..."

If he can we need a batch of pehs to Knockhill on Saturday for half time refreshments. :)

Probably add a couple of seconds to a lap time. ;)

Dundee being Dundee the original Wallace bakery on Dura Street closed a few years back. There's now tree's growing out the windows. Anywhere else and it'd be a A-list building.
Think I heard they just sold/licence the name now.

Here's a famous Dundee phrase for Tut to decipher

"Eh a Peh an an ingin in ah, an al tak a Tele tae!"

That's better.


AFAIK Wallace's pehs are still available according to this, but folks like Clarkies (that scrumptious 24hr baker just down the road from me & purveyor of fine heart-attack-on-a-bun such as the "Gutbuster", "Helicopter" and many more fried animals on bread) or Nicoll's have their own versions....

Tell you what tho' - has anyone tried Fleming's (from Forfar IIRC) steak & gravy pehs?

Food of the facking gods, I tell thee :wink:


Ali, do you want me to bring some pehs on Sunday? :blackeye

Foolish lad.
Bridies are from Forfar.
Flemmings are from Arbroath!
Flemingos on the other hand are from East Africa which is similar to Forfar, but different. :)
