Ahh, interesting suggestion. Not one I'd thought of personally, nor would I take it up, but I have added it for reference for those who might want to do such a thing. Thanks.

They did have a decent $10 menu. You have basically the choice of a chicken burger, a beef burger or a vege curry now. Sucks, cos they're $10 menu a while back was killer.

i think the hype is more around the size than the quality tbh

I used to live around the corner from the Earl of L and you are def right Khemo. Overhyped for sure.

I had a steak there the other night and it was fucking tough as also.

I like the garlic bread whcih comes with it though
How does that work? German origins or something?

A proper crumbed schnitty aint from Kraut origins thats fo sure. It originates from Austria however now has become a part of the German cuisine.

In Germany they eat a slice of meat uncrumbed with disgusting vomity Sauerkraut. Fucking Kraut. Puke. Reminds me of my parents germans restaurant they used to run when I was little. Now whenever i smell it my stomach flips a 180

I imagine schnitta as a colloquialism for sandwich finds its origin in schnitz, which means to slice or cut.

Exactly. But uncrumbed.

Nachos with guacamole is the way to go.   The Ale House does this version - I went there about a month ago and it was OK, perhaps not as good as memory of past schnittas from there nut still  FU Slayer

When I make my own I crush garlic into the chicken breast prior to crumbing with a an egg, milk and salt and pepper crumb mix.  No topping required.  Serve with salty, buttery mash potato and if anything else a side sauce made from Thommy mayo, diced red onion, pickle and a squeeze of lemon.

That's basically it though, most of the good dishes from their hot food selection are Indonesian and therefore should be classed as Indonesian cuisine. They have some nice deserts and of course I've had fkn butter cake + basically every traditional Dutch dish under the sun, I did have an Oma after all. On the whole, it's pretty crap.

You'll get no argument from me when you say it's better than German food though. But that's almost like saying aids is better than syphilis.

Yet it's called salty licorice, it was more a description of the taste than the actual ingredients. It's awful stuff. I will admit that I am one of three Dutch people I know who don't like it though.

Shit, can't remember either. My Oma used to eat that on Rusks for breakfast. I was never game enough to try it. I think she may have actually made it herself though, so I wouldn't have a clue if you can buy it here.

Passed away earlier this year unfortunately. I hope someone kept her recipes. If I can track them down I'll post up. Best buttercake/buttercookies/barmy and oliebollen ever.

Anyway, as for Schnittys, had a kilpatick (worcestershire, bbq sauce, onion, bacon, cheese) last night at the Ed and it was quite good. Actually quite a lot better than any I have had in the past at the Ed. Not sure what night it is now, but they do a $10 pint & parmi night in one of the bar areas. Always nice having a beer out in the garden when it's not completely packed with teenagers.

Oli, the big Earl one was $21. Of course, if you finish it, you are a machine. Or Quazza.

I was in Holland and Germany 2 months ago, driving through both the country and the cities. All Dutch food apart from the lollies and the butter or ginger biscuits is crap. End of story! German food is just love on a plate with pork. And potatoes. And goodness.

Dutch beer is also quite fail compared to German or Belgian. So there! Get some Weihenstephan into you!

It's alllll about the comfort food. I think that's why the German food really struck a chord with me.

French food was exquisite. Even in the smallest town it was amazing. The attention to detail, the flavour matching and the general presentation was superb! We didn't get to try Swiss though.

Czeck beer is better than both German & Belgian beer.

Trumer Pils FTW!

Czech food and beer is the goods. It's a shame no where in Adelaide does good Czech food.  Svickova with potato dumplings wins.  

On topic - Cauliflower Schnitzel and also Camembert Schnitzels rock my world.

Is it now? You really dont know what you are talking about theres no fucking salt in it.

It is pretty fuckin salty but.  I dont know whats in it or how the chemistry of the tongue works but I do know that dutch liquorice tastes pretty salty.

Headache or anyone of Dutch/Stoner origin; I can't remember the name of that spiced raw mince meat paste the Dutch usually have for brekkie on bread rolls. Does anyone know what it is actually called? Would like to chase it up one day...

You're not thinking of leverworst/liverwurst are you?

Croquettes? (mouth waters)

I must say I was disappointed withteh lack of anything exciting to eat in Holland.  Lets not forget the cheese croquets tho mmmmm

Nah, ham and cheese croquets FTW.

They should all learn how to cook like the French IMO. laugh


Pretty sure they did learn this delicious example of Dutch cuisine from the French.

That's prbably why I like croquettes then. laugh

They probably learnt croquettes, got really high and ate them and stopped paying attention to what Mr Cordon Bleu was saying.

My oma very rarely put cheese in her croquettes. They're fkn bad enough for you already without it! I might make some this weekend actually. Been ages since I've eaten croquettes. Might even make some barmy too. biggrin

No way man. Ham and kaas FTW. Can't have too much of a good thing when you've got a high metabolism.

I and my whole family are Dutch and even we think the food is pretty bad.

On the whole, it's pretty crap.

I hope someone kept her recipes. If I can track them down I'll post up. Best buttercake/buttercookies/barmy and oliebollen ever.

My main beef is with traditional hot Dutch food (like dutch pea soup:hurl:) and their awful fish and licorice, but I have always professed my love for croquettes and barmy and their other Indo influenced food. And really, buttercake obviously shouldn't be included, because how can anybody possibly not like buttercake?

There are a select few things that are awesome, but on the whole, it just doesn't stack up.

Nah, they were raw and pickled/salted, not smoked sorry. They were delish!

LOL I know, was correcting an earlier description I posted beforehand.

I used to love rollmops as a kid, but could not stand it later in life...

Ah!!!!

Just remembered! It was raw salted and pickled EEL. Yummy.

back on topic.. went to the alehouse last night and was utterly dissappointed. Not only were the schnittys 1/3 smaller, the general consensus was the taste was also very poor compared to even a couple months ago. booerns
