They are the best pasties in town which is why the queue at lunchtime is 10 people deep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would seem a pointless thing to me for something that can be cooked anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerbyTup Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 If you want a proper pasty I think you're going to have to pay that sort of money, thats what you would pay in Cornwall for the genuine article. The Greggs ones are ghastly, nothing like a proper Cornish Pasty, they contain carrots for a start which don't appear in the genuine Cornish Pasty Don't they sometimes act as understudy to the swede?

DerbyTup Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 The chicken or the breakfast pasty for me I used to know the female owner,i was in hospital after my motorbike accident and her dad was in the next bed.One day she came with a chicken pasty for me and it was the best meal all week. She was trying to tell you to marry her. I get this a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Hans Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 It is a rip off considering for 1.50 extra you can get a decent burger, chips and a pint from Cavendish. And people talking about dubious meat sources, unless you know where the meat in question comes from that argument is invalid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
