Orsum places to eat

Awesome stay at Crackenback Resort, Snowy Mountains

You may have noticed that I go on a number of trips to the snow every season. Whilst the quality and price of the trips varies considerably, one of the best and nices places that we stay at is the Novotel Crackenback resort. Here you can hire a house for the weekend which is 15 mins drive from the slops of Thredbo and has nice hire gear and not to mention great food :)

The hot breakfast normally costs $30 per person, but if you hire a house you get breakfast included for the number of beds in that house.


The selection is what you would expect from any decent hotel. There's fruit, cereal, fresh juices, variety of toasts and spread, pastries, savoury hot food and pancakes.

Of course you don't want too big a meal....otherwise you might be on the top of the mountain without a toilet in sight when mother nature calls :P

An assortment of fruit

Fruit and yogurts - watermelon is the best, hehe

Selection of cereals

Orange, apple and pineapple juices

Meaty goodness, bacon and sausages!

PASTRIES GALORE!!

A variety of spreads

My mates first plate....of many, haha- needless to say, he had a bit of trouble later....

My light-ish breakfast- hotcakes, potatoes, bacon

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

Tandoori chicken Pizza ~25.00

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!
