Pizza dinner at Jindabyne

I don't think I've been to many trips to the snow where we haven't had pizza for dinner, whether it be at Jindabyne Village, the town of Methven or in this case at Perisher's station resort. Maybe cos we're too poor to afford anything gourmet for dinner or maybe because it's the satisfaction of the cheesy, greasy goodness of a pizza that entices us everytime....

This time we stayed at The Station and went to their onsite Pizzeria - The Pizza Station. Quite a popular place judging by the amount of people waiting for their pizzas.

We ordered 2 Large pizzas between 6 people as some people weren't as hungry as others. The good thing about the Pizza Station is that it is located right next to the Stations Bar so we went over to grab a few beers whilst we waited for our order to be cooked...

Thirty minutes later, our pizzas were ready! As there was next to no room to eat inside the store, we raced back to our accomodation so that our pizzas wouldn't get cold.

Our first pizza was a Supreme with anchovies. Having never had anchovies in my life, I was quite surprised with how yummy they were! An intense salty-ness with not as much fishy-ness as I expected. No bones or anything and it added a lot of flavour to the usual supreme pizza flavour.
Definitely reccommend trying anchovies on pizza if you haven't before!

Supreme pizza + anchoves ~25.00

The next pizza was the Tandoori Chicken pizza, standard in comparison, but still delicious with a sprinkle of cashews and a drizzle of yoghurt dressing. Not a bad pizza at all.

And for those of us that were still hungry after the pizza- as always- we had a stash of asian cup noodles- yummmmmm....

Overall, pretty good Pizza considering its sole customers are from the one resort!

Quick bite on the slopes of Perisher

Another trip to the snow means another quick post about the food I ate there :P

After boarding down the slopes of perisher, we decided to eat at the Mid station instead of going all the way down to the bottom.

As I previously commented, the prices of the meals here aren't the cheapest, but there ain't much much they do about it given they are only reliant on seasonal numbers to make the profit for the year.

As such, I decided to order the Chicken Schnitzel burger which looked delicious....unfortunately, being the clumsy oaf that I am, I knocked over the burger to the ground :(

My first Chicken Burger - $20.00

As shattered as I was that I just wasted $20 on a burger that was fed to the carpet, I had to get another one. And it was worth it....definitely not the best burger I've ever had, but after working up a hunger snowboarding down the hills, it was incredibly satisfying to sink my teeth into that warm bread roll and succulent chicken, beetroot, tomato, lettuce and cheese.....yummm

My second burger - $20.00

My mate ordered the works burger which had a multitude of filling including, beef, bacon, cheese, lettuce, tomato, carrot and a salsa sauce.

Other more standard snacks we ordered were: Wedges with Sour Cream and Sweet Chilli, Nachos, Sausage Roll and Calamari and Chips. Pretty standard food, but always tasty ;)
