Mystery Parma Nights at Skinny Dog Hotel

Overview

Aussies love a classic parma — a perfectly crispy but succulent crumbed chicken breast topped with Napoli sauce, ham and melted cheese. It's what pub dreams are made of. 

But over the years, plenty of Melbourne pubs have tried to reinvent the parma, chucking all kinds of stuff on the chicken. And it seems like the public is all for it. And if you are one of these people, the Skinny Dog Hotel's weekly Mystery Parma night is made for you.

Every Thursday night until August 29, the Kew pub is serving a totally new parma special with a pot of beer ($25) that you, dear parma enthusiasts, have dreamed up. 

All you've got to do is submit your own selection of toppings to the Skinny Dog team via email, DM or phone by the Monday before and hope they pick your combo. So far, the crew has chosen and served a lamb gyros parma, lasagna parma, capricciosa pizza parma, and mac and cheese parma. 

What's next? That's totally up to you.

Plus, if your special parma gets chosen, you'll get to try it for free that coming Thursday. Classic parmas will also continue to be sold on these nights, so if you consider yourself a purist, you're still covered. Let your mates go rogue with the mystery parma while you settle in for a tried-and-tested favourite.
