After a morning in Healesville Sanctuary and before heading to Dandenong Ranges Botanic Garden, we grabbed lunch (pies!) from Pie in the Sky. I opted for their Plain Aussie Pie.
This classic Australian pie is filled with beef mince, aromatic herbs, and spices. Unfortunately, I found it to be rather bland. The flavors were muted, and the overall taste was lacking.

However, the chips (fries) we ordered were a standout. They were perfectly cooked and generously coated in the iconic Australian seasoning, chicken salt. The combination of crispy fries and savory chicken salt was absolutely delicious and made up for the disappointing pie.

Overall, while the Plain Aussie pie didn't live up to my expectations, the chips were definitely worth trying. If you're ever in Olinda, I recommend giving Pie in the Sky a visit for their chips and chicken salt.
