Everybody loves a nice, big, classic chicken schnitzel for lunch or dinner. As boring as it may be it is my all time favorite meal. No matter where I go I will most likely get a chicken schnitzel.
So that leads us to ask the question, where is the best chicken schnitzel in Sydney. I will say that pubs generally do a better schnitzel then most restaurants and usually have bigger servings (always a bonus for big eaters like me).
I have eaten chicken schnitzel at many places but the few I remember and have continued going to are:
1. Kogarah Hotel
The schnitzel here is one of the best I have had and it is huge. You get two large pieces of homemade chicken schnitzel, chips and salad and the sauce is free, which is another bonus as most places these days charge extra for gravy or any other sauce. All for a good price of $15.
2. Mikes Grill at the Royal Hotel
The Royal Hotel is in Sutherland and has recently opened up its very own Mikes Grill (which moved from The Crest in Sylvania and as two more free standing restaurants also in Sylvania). The schnitzel here is also huge and it is up there with one of the best I have ever had. It is $18 and comes with chips and salad.
3. Sidnees Cafe Burwood
Now this had to be the biggest I have ever had. It tastes as good as the other two I mentioned above but it is so much bigger. I usually force myself to get through the meal even if I am full (simply because it tastes so good and I have no self control to say no to myself) but I find it impossible to finish the chicken schnitzel almost every time. I don't remember exactly how much it was but I'm almost certain it was about $17 or $18.
So there you have it, three places where I think serve the best chicken schnitzel. If you know of any others where you think have the best be sure to let the readers know because if they are like me they would love to try new places and new schnitzel.
