One in each state, share your stories, i'll travel to the best one in Vic if people can recommend one. Also, the beer needs to be the right temp as well. Cheers, Chris

Biggest parma in SA is the mawson lakes hotel. They do a 1kg schnitzel with your choice of toppings. Its pain incarnate.
Best parma quality wise in SA, is the inglewood pub in the adelaide hills.

I heard and heard that the Palmerston was great, went and had it and it was enjoyable but I wouldn't call it the best I've had.
My experience of great parma - and believe you me, I go out at least once a week for a parma (like a surfer, always lookin for the best) - was the Windsor Castle in Prahran/South Yarra.

The Richmond Club hotel. 2 mins walk from the G. Best food before getting on the beer at the footy ever.
My mate runs it so I get them free aswell. Which makes them even better.

In SA I have heard rumors that you can get a monster Parmi at the Earl of Leicester in Parkside. Supposedly the chips come on a separate plate due to the parmi being to large.

Ask 84RGE about the full rack of ribs and the 1kg steak I ate while extremely intoxicated at the work XMas party last year. Yes, there is photographic evidence.

Mmmmmm, Schnity, Chips & Gravy mmmmmm. All in a roll thanks ;)
Best choice in Australia is at the Canberra Tradesmen's Union Club in Dickson. It boasts the largest range of Schnitzels in the Southern Hemishpere. In their heyday, they had over 30 sauces on offer. My fav, curry schnitzel & chips - hold the salad, what do I look like?? Townsville St Takeaway in Fyshwick does a mean one too. My staple lunch for longer than it should have been was a Schnitzel in a Roll with Gravy & Chips. It cost $5 and once back at work I would crack her open, fill up the Schnity Roll with Chips and eat myself into a lather. I didn't even have to say who it was calling in the order, they just knew when I said hello to get the Schnity's cooking. It's been ~3yrs since I stopped buying there but I am ashamed to admit that I still know their number off by heart :( edit - BTW, anyone in Canberra can attest to the temp on the taps. The Tradies do some serious qty's over the bar. |

I reckon make it an official FFAU eat-a-thon. Loser has to pay for the others meals including any drinks consumed.

Closer to you Chris the Magpie & Stump at Wandong had a ripper parma last time I was there (couple of years ago)
Diamond Creek pub also pretty good, last time I was there also the parma was bigger than the plate! More size than quality...but it's still good to polish off a massive feed |

Chicken parmigana. Crumbed chicken with a sauce (normally tomato) covered in cheese...sometimes with ham on top too depending on where you get one from.
