How might one describe the sentiment of this review?
I went to the Cornish Pasty Company for the first time today on recommendation from a friend who loves the restaurant. I ordered the "Mexican" which was absolutely delicious. The spices, steak, potatoes, cheese were all perfectly balanced. The pasty came with a side of salsa and sour cream, but the pasty was just perfect as is. No salsa or sour cream needed. My husband ordered the pesto chicken. It was pretty good. I sampled his item and he ate part of mine. His was pretty good, but we both agreed that the Mexican was the best. Like with the Mexican, the pasty came with marinara sauce. I tried it, but it overwhelmed the wonderful flavor of the chicken and pesto. Plus, the marinara sauce and the salsa both tasted like they came out of a jar, so to put them on a pasty seemed not right at all. We also ordered the garlic oven chips (fries)--first mistake! I LOVE garlic and add it in just about everything I eat. The fries were just too overwhelming with salt and garlic. We could not eat them. We took them home to our teenagers, who eat anything, and they agreed that they were too salty and had too much garlic. I am quite certain, based on my friend's review, that my fries/chips were accidentally dosed with extra garlic. She claims they were the best, but mine were not edible. After trying the fries, I did not like the mashed potatoes either which tasted like they had too much garlic. They probably didn't, but it was hard to get the garlic flavor out of my mouth. I sampled the potatoes within 5 minutes of them arriving, and they were just warm. The cheese on top had already hardened. I think that definitely took away from the potatoes. Like with the fries, we brought the potatoes home, and the teens ate them no problem and claimed that they did not have too much garlic. As for us adults, we will definitely order a pasty or two again. I will probably try the garlic chips again just because my friend can't be wrong.... and maybe those potatoes too. Hopefully they will come out with melted, gooey cheese next time....OPTIONS:
