Jindabyne Seafood, Jindabyne, 12-2015

Every good roadtrip requires a fish & chip stop whenever possible. My trips to the Merimbula (Tathra Seafood), Sydney (A Fish Called Coogee) and Jamberoo (Jaws at Kiama) have all followed this tradition. On a recent trip to Thredbo/Kosciuszko, the return home included passing through the gorgeous little lakeside town of Jindabyne and a searching for one reputed fish & chipper.

At 12pm on a Sunday, 3 young and obviously hungover males adorned the outside settling their stomachs and preparing for the headache of a day ahead.

Inside the machinery of cooking was in action, with the fish of the day (blue grenadier) fried to perfection. The crisp batter, tasty skin and soft flesh was lightly salted. The chips were fine and completed the meal.

In a hungrier state, I'd be interested in also trying some of the other seafoods on offer. Given the town location, most of the other seafood may be frozen rather than fresh. Also I'd read the fish burger and tempura prawn burger are also worth beholding, so that leaves some anticipation for if I'm ever again there this lifetime.
