It is really difficult to try things other than our favorites, but last night we had the Cornish meatballs app ($7.75), the Guinness Stew pasty ($10), and the Chicken Greek pasty ($9.75). None of which we had ever had before. Those meatballs are fantastic. What a rich flavor. I'm going to try to duplicate it. They are like Swedish meatballs on steroids. Highly recommend those. The meatballs are bacon-wrapped. What else do you need to know?
The Guinness stew pasty was stuffed full of everything you'd expect to find in a stew and had a rich, beefy flavor. That one is comfort food for sure. My husband had the Chicken Greek pasty and we enjoyed the flavors in that one as well, especially the kalamata olives. Those always add something great.
I also tried the Founders special beer they had on tap, without asking too many details because I like their brews. It was the Breakfast Stout and it's a good strong one, priced at $9. It paired very well with the Guinness pasty.
He had his usual, the Rogue Hazelnut brown, and then we tried the Leffe Blonde Ale. Someday I'm going to go to Belgium to meet the monks who make such great beer. What a gig that must be. That one was very different from what we had been drinking, but exceptional all the same. Now I have an excuse to go to the liquor store and look for some to have at home. All in we spent about $50. Mica took great care of us at the bar. Always look forward to Cornish Pasty Co.
