Lancashire pub's £8k pie was one of world's most expensive dishes

A pie from a Burnley pub has been classed as one of the most expensive plates in the world.

The savoury serving comes in at an astronomical price primarily due to its world-class ingredients. The pie was once served at the Fence Gate Inn for an eye-watering £8,195 (£1,024 a slice) - reports LancsLive.

Former head chef Spencer Burge created the pie recipe using Japanese Wagyu Beef, Chinese Matsutake Mushrooms, Winter Black Truffles and French Bluefoot Mushrooms back in 2005. The pie, which also contained two bottles of vintage wine, joins four other extortionately-priced dishes from restaurants around the world.
