I arrived at the hotel at night after a whole day’s driving. I was tired, I was hungry, and the only other option for dinner was a seedy looking takeaway shop across the road. And as I checked in, I was informed that it was schnitzel night at the hotel restaurant downstairs.
Well, who am I to resist fate? I made my order, dumped my bags in my room, then came back to get a taste of Port Lincoln’s schnitzel offerings.
Let’s just say, I hope there are better schnitzels elsewhere in Port Lincoln. This one was real average. For $12 I guess I couldn’t really have asked for too much – and, to be fair, the chips, gravy and salad were decent. But there was very little meat in the schnitzel.
The verdict: Not a bad little inn to stay at, and the restaurant was quite nice. Maybe I’ll go on steak night next time though…
