pasty barm

A delicacy from Bolton, UK. It is any form of pasty/pie(though often your basic meat & potato) sandwiched on a (preferably buttered) barm cake. Available at all good Hampsons & Greenhalgh's stores in Bolton, though elsewhere in the country often requires specific instructions in the construction. You do lose some flavour of the pasty/pie, but you increase the munch factor. Pie barms can also be a messy eat.
