Oceania

The conspicuous Italian immigration in Australia has strongly influenced Australian cuisine. Chicken parmigiana, based on a combination of the Italian melanzane alla parmigiana with a cotoletta, was known in Australia by the 1950s. In 1952, the first espresso machines began to appear in Sydney (probably the first in Australia) and a plethora of fine Italian coffee houses were emerging in other Australian cities, such as Melbourne.
