Now this was a bit of a surprise. I know you can’t judge a book by its cover, but when I found out that the Woolshed does $10 schnitzels, the word “quality” did not immediately come to mind. I was expecting, at best, a shrivelled, overcooked, deep-fried disgrace of a schnitzel, with a spattering of oven fries shoved underneath and a miserable salad thrown in for good measure.
What we got served up with, however, far exceeded my low expectations. The schnitzel was quite thick, and tasted pretty damn good (real chicken – who would’ve thought?). The chips were shoved underneath as expected, but were quite nice. And the salad was very generous, with a delicious honey-mustard dressing. For ten bucks, this is an absolute steal!
The Woolshed is actually a pretty good place to eat (albeit probably better at 6pm on a Thursday night than 10pm on a Saturday night) – gotta love smashing a good feed in an outback-themed pub.
I know happy endings on Hindley Street aren’t unusual, but this is one that anyone can enjoy!
The verdict: Seriously, get on this.
