You have to try a pasty which is a Cornish hot filled pastry pocket, available in both savory and sweet. It is part of the local history. Minors, who came from the Cornish region in England, would take this for their meal as they head off to the mines, as it is hearty and easy to transport... and it is DELICOUS!
