The First Supper

So bit of a background story to bring you up to speed, We have decided to compile a list of pubs in the town we live in currently and then go to a different one week after week and have a pub style meal rate the meals on 6 criteria and just have a good time.

This week was our first outing the five of us met at O' Keefes pub ( http://www.okeefes.com.au/ ) mainly cause it was the easiest option to start with - cant say no to a $12 Chicken Parma and a 10 ounce of beer.

We decided on how we should rate every meal a six point checklist out of 10 which each of us completes then we take the average rating and this gives us the verdict on Presentation, Taste, Size,Cost/Value, Venue Vibe and the Service. It was decided that we should also run a timer from when the waitress/waiter leaves the table with the last order written and stop it when the last meal comes out. (starting next week)

So the first outing gave us a good base to start, four of us had the special which is a Chicken parma and 10 ounce of beer deal for $12! One had the Garlic Prawns $26.

The overall verdict on the $ 12 Chicken Parma ..

1- Presentation  3.5
2 - Taste            4.5
3 - Size              6.25
4 - Cost/Value   7.12
5 - Venue Vibe  2.12

Pretty decent meal considering the price, definitely a pub meal was almost as if it was cooked at home by your Mum.

The Garlic Prawns $26

1- Presentation  2
2 - Taste            5
3 - Size              7

4 - Cost/Value   4

5 - Venue Vibe  5
6 - Service         8

So that's one down and many to go, next week we venture to Irish Murphy's http://irishmurphys.net.au/
