O'Maille's Hotel

"chicken"

Had very high expectations especially as there was a sign advertising the best parmy in town. Very disappointing!! The whole thing was just average- the salad didnt have much dressing, the parmy was average in size and the topping was nothing special. We paid an extra $1 for a gravy boat but instead they put a little over the chips which made them really soggy.

The claim is that they have the best parmy on the border, but, baaaaaarh! Fraid notski peeps. Once again I was diddled is the size stakes with my fellow diners each getting a substantially larger breast than my own (he he). I don’t know what happened, but I’m pretty sure there wasn’t a kids size on offer. The breast was dry and shaped like a wedge, three times as thick at one end compared to the other. The crumbing was ok, the tasty ham slice covered the whole parmy – not so hard given the size of the damn thing – and the cheese topping was not thick enough. Chips were tasty and well cooked but there could have been a little more of them and a little less under the parmy. The salad was average with too many sprouts, not enough leaf and NO dressing. This venue had a good range of beer on tap, toasty warm in the front bar area but a cold and soulless corner where the automated TAB machine was recently installed.

The irony is that these guys actually have a sign on the wall advertising 'the border's best parmi' Umm, I have some news for you O;Maille's-YOU'RE WRONG! The chicken was flavourless, dry & tough, the topping was also flavourless, and the salad didn't even have dressing. The only thing this parmi & pot deal had going for it was the pot. O'Mailles have a great range of beers on tap, but for gods sake go with a bowl of chips & don't order the parmi!!
