'Everyone just wants a pint and a parma,' says the manager of Fitzroy's Birmingham Hotel, which reopened on Monday after 10 beer-free weeks
Fitzroy's Birmingham Hotel reopened on Monday after 10 beer-free weeks and punters have been flocking to the pub non-stop ever since with two things on their radar."There are many meals you can make at home, but a parma is one you'll struggle to create as good as a pub. It's about getting the oven to the high temperature you need to achieve a parma's crispiness.
Van Burren suggests the surge in parma popularity is because people have been missing the pub culture associated with chook schnitzel covered in cheese, ham and Neapolitan sauce even more than the dish itself. Van Buuren recommends a lager or pale ale to accompany Moon Dog's parma if people have plans to visit the brewpub.
Meanwhile, David Stingl, general manager of on-premise sales at Carlton and United Breweries , says punters headed to a traditional pub this long weekend can be sure the draught taps will be flowing.
