the best pasty (! or ?)

Saturday night came and went, but bless my mother-in-law once again for the weekly pasty (she bakes them religiously on a Friday for lunch, as her mother did, and her mother's mother and so on way back to before the family can remember).

And I have to say as good as Phelps are, they do not compare to the real thing (must post my father-in-law's pasty story one day, its a cracker).

But what prompted me to make this post was a mention on the pasties and cream blog of of a redruth based blog, http://theonlinepastyguide.blogspot.com/ that I found really amusing (do check out 1st sept post 'The Future').

Within his posts he mentions quite a few I've never heard of. and intriguingly in the post listing his dad's favourites by location for Hayle its Hanson's and not Phelps. Might have to wander over to Hayle sometime soon and see for myself.

Of course though its your own palate that will always be the bottom line as i note that pasties and cream highlights that the onlinepatyguide isn't too keen of Lavenders in Penzance, unlike his dad, which whilst I'll admit I haven't tried a Lavenders myself, I've heard very good things of their food and excellent reports of their scotch eggs.
