This dinner was so long ago that I barely remember the details; but I do know that we had a great time at the North Fitzroy Arms, which is a pub-slash-restaurant in, duh, North Fitzroy. Catch-ups with my school/uni friends don't happen as often as they should, what with all the commitments of being a grown-up - full-time work, boyfriends, girlfriends, new dogs and interstate relocation, to name a few.
The owners are, I believe, Hungarian - expect hearty, tasty food with lots of meat!
Kassler was on the menu, so I had to order it. *Jumps for joy!* I loved the smoky, salty meat, the creamy sauce, and the sauerkraut. Unfortunately, the bread dumplings were cold on the inside, but there was more than enough on the plate to keep me occupied.
Fried Goat's Cheese - $12To share between us. Fried cheese = happy times.
Traditional Hungarian Beef Goulash - $23Bread bowl! Cute!
This one was a special (and thus not on the online menu, so I can't find out the price) - I believe it was kangaroo with beetroot and risotto.
Grain fed aged Porterhouse 350g Char Grilled & Served with potatoes, quick fried rocket & garlic jus - market priceIt's almost impossible not to order dessert when a bunch of us get together.
Home Made Apple Strudel - traditional slovenian recipe - $10It was warm, it was crispy, it had vanilla ice-cream. Yum.
When I saw the cheesecake, my first thought was, "Dude, you've dropped some ice-cream on your cheesecake", hehe, and I didn't think it would be any good. But oh boy, was it delicious! So dense and creamy, with a lovely crispy base.
I really enjoyed North Fitzroy Arms, and would definitely come back again. It's a little bit pricey for a casual meal (you know I am all about the $8 dumplings & noodles), but I enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and the tasty food.
Like this type of food? You might also enjoy Koliba (Czech) and Hofbräuhaus (German).
