Can't remember anything else.
Parmigiana that was well worth the wait. Busy cosy pub with a tops menu.
Chips could have been chubbier.

Beachway Motel, Ulverstone, Tasmania
Date: 11 June 2015
Price: can't remember
With: mushroom sauce, chips and salad
This excellent schnitzel definitely outweighed the loud swearing guys that decided to hang out outside my room and the fact I had to turn on the hot tap in the shower and the sink at the same time if I wanted hot water to come out.
Foghorn Brewery Newcastle
Foghorn Brewery Newcastle
Date: 21st August 2016
Type: chicken
Price: $18 ($2 to swap potato chips with sweet potato chips)
With: coleslaw, Lemon and chips
It was cooked nicely and had an inoffensive flavour. The chips were very lovely and not too chubby. Coleslaw is coleslaw, right?
I would eat again, but probably order something green to eat it with. A little too much brown in my meal for my liking.
Cool brewery as well (you craft beer nerds would love it), but bring an extra scarf on a cold day.
Clean toilets as well. Thumbs up.

Lord Raglan
Lord Raglan Hotel, Alexandria
Date: 28th February 2015
Type: chicken
Price: ummm.... i think it was $12
With: chips, salad and tomato sauce
Cheap and good. For the price, i really couldn't go past this menu selection. The schnitzel was one of the standard pub-type schnitzels but it was cooked crispiliciously. The chips were optimally chubby and the salad had half a cherry tomato in it. Amazing.
I didn't sample the sauce, not sure why... but by all accounts, it was excellent. To me, tomato sauce is something i put on food that tastes ordinary and needs it's actual flavour hidden.
Also... this pub needs to be mentioned based on some of the lovely beers it has on tap... most notably the range from Shenanigans Brewing. Well worth trying if mainstream beers aren't your thing. Good selection and i don't even really have a hangover!

Ikea? You bet.
Ikea Foodorium, Tempe
Date: 18th February 2015
Type: chicken (fingers crossed, at least) parmigiana
Price: $7.95
With: chips
Walking into Ikea, all i wanted was a $1 hotdog, but i found myself ordering the special of the evening.... the parmigiana. As you can see, i didn't have a $20, but i did have packet of Kwells. Thankfully, the Kwells weren't required during the evening.
The meal, well, it was pretty revolting. The schnitzel itself was very processed indeed. The topping really isn't worth mentioning either. I do love the ikea mustard though. :)
The chips were reasonable, but probably only because they were freshly made.
Note: the iced tea-isn drink was nice.
I also bought a new shower curtain.
Concordia Club
Concordia Club, Tempe
Date: 15th February 2015
Type: chicken
Price: Can't remember... if you squint, you might be able see the menu in the photo.
With: chips and salad
Well, i'm sure we're got a specimen from the trusty Concordia Club somewhere else on this site, but we thought it as time for an update.
As you can see, the Concordia makes a good looking schnitzel. Admittedly, it was not I that ate it (i could only manage to force down a large piece of cherry and cheese strudel and eleventy beers). So i can't really comment on the taste. But looking at the face of the eater, i can say that immense joy was had.
Concordia club: it's an excellent place for tasty german food and beer.... and listening to such classic hits such as Xanadu, in german. Brilliant.

Twenty One Espresso
Twenty One Espresso, Double Bay
Date: January 9th, 2015
Type: half-half (half chicken, half veal)
With: cucumber salad and cream spinach
Price: $29 (i think)
Oh Double Bay, how did you get left so squarely in the 80's? What a bizarre suburb!
The Twenty One Espresso Cafe is a little Hungarian Cafe that does, amongst a bunch of other things, schnitzels. Although pricey, the schnitzels are clearly made from scratch rather than frozen; nice and thin and crispy. It was also unanimously decided that the veal half was tastier than the chicken half.
I wouldn't say this is my favourite schnitzel or that you can't find a schnitzel better elsewhere, but it was definitely good. The thing that made this schnitzel so good was easily the spinach cream. I'm not sure what they did to make that glorious green mush, but it was excellent.
Overall: splendid..... 4.32 out of 5.
