Overview

Belles Hot Chicken has flirted with all sorts of chook-centric creations over the years, but there's one classic Aussie chicken dish that it's left untouched. Until now. Head chef and co-founder Morgan McGlone has just gone and dropped the group's first ever chicken parma sandwich, as part of Belles' new limited-edition Italian menu, Parma di Bella.

This star sanga ($13) teams a garlic-brushed Italian bun with crumbed chicken tenders, rich napoli sauce, melted pecorino and a shaved fennel and rocket slaw. And it's got a worthy accompaniment in the new chicken skin mac 'n' cheese ($6), featuring McGlone's classic macaroni side topped with crispy fried chicken skin, smoked paprika and a dusting of Italian seasoning.

On offer at all Belles outposts from May 29 to June 19, the pop-up menu also showcases a couple of fittingly Italian booze matches. You'll find crisp tinnies of Peroni Red ($6), along with a special pull from the cellar: the unique Sicilian red, Frank Cornelissen Contadino ($16 a glass).

Parma di Bella is available at Belles Hot Chicken Barangaroo, Darling Square and Tramsheds.
