I
often
try
new
food
out
at
local
eateries.
Today,
I
experimented
with
an
English
food
called
a
Cornish
Pasty.
The
location
was
called
Sonson
Pasty
Company.
I
was
delighted.
A
pasty
(said
"past-ee"
with
a
soft
"a")
is
a
pastry
filled
with
a
meal,
in
this
case
meat,
potatoes
and
possibly
other
vegetables,
or
cheese.
The
pastry
dough
shell
is
baked
in
the
oven
and
provides
a
wonderful
tasty
and
flaky
shell
to
your
choice
in
inside
meats
and
more.
The
small
food
kitchen
is
located
just
north
east
of
Recker
Rd
and
Brown
Rd
in
Mesa.
The
business
area/strip
mall
is
sparsely
filled
so
you
should
just
head
to
the
north
east
area
of
the
parking
lot
to
find
it.
Inside
is
a
small
shop
with
a
half
a
dozen
tables
and
a
counter
serve
area
for
purchasing
your
food.
The
walls
are
decorated
with
paraphernalia
from
the
Cornwall
area
of
England
and
the
hosts/owners
greeted
me
warmly
when
I
entered.
When
you
order
a
pasty,
you
decide
if
you
want
steak,
ground
beef
or
pork
(they
now
have
a
new
chicken
pasty
as
well)
and
cheese
if
you
wish.
They
add
in
potatoes,
rutabaga
and
onions.
The
entire
pasty
is
wrapped
completely
in
a
beautifully
flaky
and
savory
pastry
shell
and
baked
to
perfection.
The
pasty
often
comes
with
a
gravy
to
top
it
off
(wow!).
A
pasty
will
run
you
between
$8-10
and
it
is
truly
a
meal.
They
even
have
veggie
pasties
if
you
call
ahead,
for
those
wanting
veggie
meals.
I
really
enjoyed
my
first
encounter
with
a
pasty,
and
with
the
staff
at
Sonsons
Pasty
Company.
Julie,
the
proprietor,
was
kind
and
answered
all
my
novice
questions
with
grace
and
a
smile.
Something
great
to
try.
If
you've
never
had
a
pasty-
go
get
one
at
Sonsons
Pasty
Co.
I
will
return!
