Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention please?

Are your nostrils a quiver and tingling as well at the delicate lashes

Is like nothing compared to its succulent source as the gourmets among you will

tell you of course

Ladies and gentlemen you can’t imagine the rapture in store

Just inside of this door!

There you’ll sample Mrs. Lovett’s meat pies

savory and sweet pies as you’ll see
