The Crab & Winkle, at Loxley, Werrington, is offering foodies the chance to design a brand new pie dish to be featured on a specials menu later this year.

Charlotte Johnson, general manager at the Crab & Winkle, said: “We decided to mark the launch of our Best of British festival by launching a competition to find a new twist on one of Britain’s best dishes, the humble pie.
“We are hoping to find pies that are both creative and delicious in equal measure; whether it’s an old favourite, a personal speciality or a classic pie with a modern twist. We can’t wait to see what the Peterborough community come up with.”
Participants can enter their pie designs on the Crab & Winkle Facebook page, www.facebook.com/pages/The-Crab-Winkle/495438213811784, unril April 22.
