February 14, 2011: The Napier Hotel

Our Mon pub-club continues to endeavour to honour novel veg-friendly pubs to sample. This calendar week it was The Napier inwards the back-streets of Fitzroy, most famous for its ridiculously artery-curdling meat attack, the bogan burger. Thankfully the card is wide-ranging, providing many dishes amongst fewer than iii types of meat.

The pub itself is something of a TARDIS, amongst 3 or iv biggish rooms, a squeamish petty courtyard together with a handful of tables out on Napier St - nosotros had to produce periodic sweeps of the pub to brand certain people knew where nosotros were hiding. The card provides enough of veg options - a burger together with 2 mains out of nearly 10 meals inwards total.

Cindy together with I both had our eyes on the vegie burger, a couscous together with cannellini edible bean patty, amongst salad, eggplant relish, aoli, crinkle cutting chips together with coleslaw ($16).

 This calendar week it was The Napier inwards the dorsum Feb 14, 2011: The Napier HotelFrom where I was sitting (which was likewise far away to pocket a bit), this looked corking - chunky beans were visible throughout the patty, which had a squeamish crispy outer layer. Cindy concurred that the patty was ane of the ameliorate vegie burger patties she's had, but amongst the large bun-roll together with generous pile of chips, the whole affair was but likewise massive for her - I'm certain I could convey given it a skilful home.

Instead, I worked my agency through a whole cherry capsicum stuffed amongst couscous, mushrooms together with haloumi, served amongst a warm salad of light-green edible bean together with artichoke amongst shallot together with sherry vinaigrette ($17).

 This calendar week it was The Napier inwards the dorsum Feb 14, 2011: The Napier HotelThis seemed a repast much likewise classy for a pub offering upward a bogan burger - the edible bean together with artichoke salad was but the correct mix of crunchy together with tender, land the lightly roasted capsicum was stuffed total of glorious couscous-based tastiness. The exclusively downside was the lack of substantial haloumi pieces inwards the filling - it seemed to convey been melted through, a fact I exclusively realised subsequently spending one-half the repast earthworks to a greater extent than or less for a delicious cheesy chunk or two.

The Napier ended upward providing an early on pub-club highlight for 2011, amongst the residual of our gang rattling positive nearly their meatier choices. It's difficult to imagine a ameliorate identify to hold upward on a sunny summertime afternoon than a shady tabular array inwards the beer garden at the Napier.
