Every Friday without fail Mother-in-Law makes pasties for lunch, its a tradition! Her Mother made them on Fridays as well and beyond that her Mother too. Needless to say one of Mother-in-Laws would be the best pasty you ever ate no question, but short of becoming family the next best thing has to be one of the beauties from Philps who have a bakery in Hayle and another in Marazion (ideally suited for a trip out with beach walks and lovely galleries to browse).
So last Wednesday with a little free time we popped over to the car boot at Rosudgeon (a grate for our woodburner for a quid and for 4quid some lovely old recessed brass drawer handles - will come in useful one day!) and on the way back we took the scenic route and popped into Marazion to visit Philps for a couple of medium steaks (be warned, they are huge. wife wished she had bought a small).

Every bit as good as ever, and even my wife, who despite being a local had never tried one, was very impressed.
Take it from me then, forget the rubbish you find in the stereotypically branded high street pasty chains and take time to discover where the locals get their treats. It truly is the little bakers that make them best!
