Winter & Snow in Australia!

It's winter in Australia now, and the best thing about winter is of course the snow! For those from an all-year-round tropical country like us, winter is always the season to look forward to - cold breeze, blowing 'smoke' out from our mouth when we talk, and of course, the white blanket of snow, and if we're lucky, seeing snowflakes fall down from the sky.

Over these two years that we've stayed in Melbourne, we have had the chance to visit 3 alpine resorts that have snow: Mt. Baw Baw, Mt. Buller and Falls Creek. The other two snow places in Victoria are in Lake Mountain and Mt. Hotham (we'll be visiting Mt. Hotham for very soon).

These winter & snow posts have been long due for updates. We'll post the updates for Mt. Baw Baw, Mt. Buller and Falls Creek very soon, but meanwhile, you can have a look at their websites:

For those in Malaysia looking for some snow adventure, now you don't have to fly very far. Because now we know Victoria have lots of them! :)

While we were in Clayton Rd, we saw a Halal butcher and decided to stock up on some groceries. So now we have another option to get Halal meat. They sell a selection of chicken, beef, lamb, sausages, marinated mince, kebab mince and more.

Clayton Halal Butcher is located at 322 Clayton Rd, Clayton.

BBQ Chicken @ Clayton

We were around Clayton area today and stopped for lunch at this eatery called Clayton BBQ Chicken. We don't have a long list of Halal eateries for southern part of Melbourne yet, so this was a good stop to add into our collection, and to share with other Melbourne Walk-Walkers.

Like the name, Clayton BBQ Chicken sells a range of roasted chicken, fried chicken, chips, fried rice, fried noodles, schnitzels, burgers and salads.


The price is pretty affordable. My quarter chicken bbq with chips cost AUD6.50.





Here is their opening hours:


Clayton BBQ Chicken is located at 375 Clayton Rd, Clayton.
