Reviewers – Cale, Lee, Stefo

It has become a bit of a tradition over the many years that we have been reviewing parmas, to start each new review by regaling you, dear reader, with the story of how a particular restaurant came to fall on our radar. Unfortunately not all reviews have such a fascinating story. As is the case with Essendon's Mr. Kronk's, for the tale of how we came across this parma is, in it's entirety -

A mate told me about it and we decided it looked pretty good.

Captivating, no? We're in talks with Paramount and MGM for the film rights.

But seriously, Mr. Kronk's was new, it was relatively local to all reviewers and from pictures I'd seen floating around online, looked like a pretty decent place.

There is a bit of a dichotomy to Mr. Kronk's. The front building is your standard Essendon cafe, where you'd pop in for you morning coffee and smashed avo - But weave through the dining room, past the kitchen and out the back and, like Princess Jasmine on the magic carpet, you'll discover a whole new world.
