Food in Cornwall is delicious. Most of local restaurants and pubs are supplied with product from the local farmers, so everything is tasty and fresh.
Cornish pasties
These come in different variations: traditional steak, cheese and onion, vegetable
Sea food
One must eat sea food when in Cornwall. I recommend mussels, fish and seafood platter.
