The German Club - Chicken with Gravy

The Germans are often noted for their love for beer and schnitzel, so how does the German Club on Flinders stack up to its major schnitzel competitors?

The GC is a nice place to go for that Friday after work beer. Lovingly adorned with German memorabilia and featuring live traditional music the GC has an atmosphere that almost can't be beaten. The previous schnitzel I had here was a disappointment but when I saw a 2 buck price increase and heard word of a new kitchen I had to give them a second chance.

14-03-08_1814 The schnitzel was promptly made and was awaiting me at the kitchen window. The chips were large, well seasoned and the serving plentiful. The yellow colour is due to my poor phone camera.

The schnitzel was well-cooked and had maintained its crispness on the top and bottom, a welcomed surprise. The schnitzel was a good size too; thick and with a large surface area. The gravy was a little watery but did the job. At $10 bucks this is a great schnitzel.

Price: $10
