  • You cannot miss this iconic dish when you're in Melbourne. Today we head down to Fitzroy to the Birmingham Hotel for the Thickest and Chunkiest Chicken Parma I have ever bitten into.
    The Chicken Parma is a classic Australian dish and it must not be missed, it is not going to have mind blowing flavors but it is a soul warming type of food, especially in winter when this episode was filmed.
    Myself and Chris a chef take you on this tasty journey of Melbourne's finest Parma, enjoy!

    I am not a huge fan of Chicken Parms, I'd rather have a roast dinner or coq au Vin or battered scallops & fish, but I might make a one-off exception if I saw that ! That looks HECTIC ❗️

      Yeah this one is amazing! Especially with the egg. The chicken is moist as well.

    Anyone mention that the bermi used to be a skin head pub back in the day? I always remember steering clear of it when I moved to Melbourne in early 2000's the Napier is decent though.

      That's an interesting history. I probably wouldn't be welcomed there back in the day 😅

    I’ve been to the Birmingham and had their Parma and it has got nothing on Amstel club in Cranbourne. Surely someone in the comments has tried one there, I could eat them every night.

    I don't like a thick parma. That's a sign of poor technique, and maybe even the wrong piece of chicken, in my opinion. I am surprised a chef recommended it... no actually, when I think about it, I'm not surprised. Just because you're a chef, doesn't mean you know everything, or have good taste. Chef's can single handedly send a pub down, no one can argue that.

      @@LocalEaters that's fine, not holding it against you. I only just subscribed after seeing your banh mi vid out in Springvale. I am so serious, I might just venture out there... via public transport from Kinglake! No joke. I better get two, what a Bargain.
      Now, I could be way off, however let's think about what is traditional in Melbourne for a chicken parma. And I'm not getting hung up on the Aussie thing here, for now. The chicken should resemble a schnitzel. That is, a tender, juicy, crumbed piece of chicken that is of even thickness and consistent texture. I have noticed over recent years that pubs are dishing up breast meat that is often dry and tough (it's tricky if not impossible to cook it evenly) in a lazy attempt at a parma. The chicken must be as cheap as you can get too, and I hate to tell you, the old adage of less is more definitely applies here. More work on the making of the crumbed piece of chicken is everything though. But ay, what would I know, not a chef here 🙄
