A hearty feast before The Big Game was on the menu tonight so we headed to The Lord Stanley. Good food, good beer, not too crowded, complimentary mini-bus to The Gabba. All round excellent.
G agonised over what to order. I on the other hand went for the obvious choice - the Chicken Parmie. Three cheese Chicken Parmie no less. I couldn't tell you what the cheese varieties were but what I can tell you is that they, and everything on this plate, was delicious.
G had a rump steak with mushroom sauce, chips and a ceaser salad. He seemed pretty happy. I'm disappointed that he didn't order one of the steak toppers. Options were onion rings, prawns, calamari, ribs or lamb skewers. Steak topped with ribs - how amazing would that have been. Though, the corn topper was an unexpected bonus for him.
Turns out Kirst is a connoisseur of the cheap Gabba wines and was delighted to see this new variety on offer....so, it made the blog. She was very impressed with the cup type - holds more wine, stylish, spill-resistant lip.

My memory of the Lord Stanley from going there years ago is of a seedy drinking hole that smelled of piss and missing teeth. Happily it is much cheerier now. Everything I ate was good except the salad - that was very mediocre.
