Say cheese!

Former All Black Dan Carter scored a steak and cheese pie when he popped into Blenheim’s Burleigh Gourmet Pies last week.

The retired rugby union player is a fan of the store’s pies, often calling in when he’s in Marlborough visiting family.

Married to national field hockey star Honor Carter, whose parents live in Blenheim, the Order of New Zealand Merit recipient was happy to pose for photos.

Shop owner Rod Burdis says the rugby great went for a traditional steak and cheese pie this time.
