An OK parmi, didn’t change my life but did its job. The gravy was as runny as my recent bowel movements in Sri Lanka. Coleslaw is the worst kind of salad IMO. The chicken was good, and the cheese lacked conviction. For its price, there’s certainly better in the Hobart area.

The 2nd best parmi in moonah.

I’m genuinely not sure how you can improve on a moonah hotel parmi, it’s basically perfect. A pleasure as always.

The Metz provided an OK parmi, priced at $31 usually but $20 on a Thursday was a nice surprise. The chips were nice, seasoned well and crunchy. The salad was better than it looks, with a lovely, citrusy dressing, could have just used a little bit more of it. The parmi itself was good, did its job but I would not write home about it. The service left a bit to be desired but overall, a nice summers evening spent at the Metz. Paired with a pint of great northern.

A funny parmi this one. The actual parmi itself was fantastic, fresh, big and just what the doctor ordered on a Friday night. However, the rest of the dish was pretty average. The chips had NO salt, the salad had NO dressing and the food came out with NO utensils. An unfortunate mishap from the Richmond hotel, and given the price ($32 is extortionate for a parmi but hey that’s Melbourne for you) I probably won’t be returning anytime soon.

An excellent parmi, so big I couldn’t finish it! Point deduction for coleslaw as the salad but considering the TWO pieces of chicken, I can look past it. No ham as Malaysia is a majority Muslim country, so understandable. If you find yourself in KL, head straight here.

For its location and price, a fantastic parmi. Chicken was fresh and succulent, cheese wasn’t distributed super well, but wasn’t something I thought about while eating. Only 3 chips and NO salt was a letdown, but considering the location it’s something I can live with. Salad was good, with a nice dressing. Overall, an excellent parmi experience and I would recommend.

PLEASE NOTE: the photo was taken after some chips had been eaten, the original dish had far more chips than displayed on the image. The Mayfair provided one of the best parmi’s I’ve had in Hobart. The only downside was the size, it was so good, I just wish there was more! The chips were seasoned to perfection, the cheese and ham were crispy, and the chicken was juicy and tender. Paired with a pint of stone and wood, the perfect finish to the working year!

My first parmi at the waterfront hotel (C Bar), but it certainly will not be my last. Chips cooked to perfection, beautifully dusted with plenty of salt. Shredded ham on top, stringy cheese, what more could you ask for? Fantastic way to finish the weekend.

Shippies is a fantastic establishment, however, the parmi is not their speciality. It was okay, but nothing to write home about.
