Meal #15: Lunch

Steak and Ale Cornish Pasty, Cornish Pasty window, Oxford, UK

This pasty was pretty awesome.  Steak and Ale are a killer combination.  There were also chunks of potatoes in there.  The pasty dough was crisp and buttery on the outside and soft and flaky on the inside, a perfect vessel for takeaway food.  To be fair though, I was so hungry I would’ve gladly eaten that pigeon and been as happy.

Meal #2: Lunch

A small shop down by the post office, Oxford, UK

Chicken and mushroom pasty, with 500 mils of Dr. Pepper.  More of a snack than a real lunch, but I was on the go.  The pastry was flaky and well seasoned, lots of herbs in the sauce.  The Dr. Pepper was cold and refreshing.
