Elephant & Wheelbarrow, St Kilda


Elephant & Wheelbarrow, St Kilda, Melbourne
Date: March 4th, 2007
Price: $16.90
Type: Chicken parmigiana
With: chips and salad

Small in size, but decent quality. Actually flattened chicken, not this "shaped" malarky!

Shame about the fact that this pub seems to be a haven for backpackers.

Also, whilst in Melbourne, i noticed that the parmigiana seems to be on most pubs menus, rather that the plan old schnitzel. Those crazy victorians... next thing you'll be telling me that don't drink schooners of beer!
