:o

I'm putting Richmond up there with the best. Nice selection of fatty foods and lovely german beer.

Nothing beats a steak roll at the Veneto club- for Essendon or Bulleen games. --as long as its fresh-- if its not fresh- its shit.

[dave30]

Can't speak for footy grounds but for hockey grounds it would be footscray and essendon

[nonna]

The hot chips at Richmond were quite disgusting, although they were cheap and the sauce didnt cost anything.

Havent been anywhere else....

At least Richmond's inside so you're nice and warm! (And can retreat from the German hools...or is their cake just a front to lure you into a false sense of security :eek: )

[nonna]

ooohhhh yes!!! they are good!!! (brunswick)- The last time I was there, we lost and I was shitty, so didnt stay around for one. :( this makes me sad.


the chicken skewers and cevaps at pascoe vale are yum.

[PMHC]

Essendon and Preston for me

[Victory2006]

Cevapi at Springvale White Eagles ;):D

Awesome stuff.

[LS 11]

Franga - had sauasage cooked by the numpty's in the stand across from the shop - avoid like the plague

Doveton - run out of whatever they've stolen and cooked up b4 the seniors start - all tasty and frsh but runs out before 1/2 time every game

Rowvilee - you have the option of Mici (pronounced Mitch im told) or Mici, bloody nice but

[Daims09]

Oakleigh for me!

[PMHC]

Cevapi at Springvale White Eagles ;):D

Awesome stuff.

I remember playing against them 2 years ago and somebody got food poisoning from the cevapi :D

[nonna]

I'm in. I could do with a bit less arse, after the kirspey kreme I had for breakfast. :o

[Victory2006]

Bloody hell, they must have cheaped out and got the Maco cevapi from Preston Market :D

[MVForever]

I'm disappointed in you. :(

[nonna]

the cevaps from the preston markets are from the guy at dandenong! offtopic:

[PMHC]

haha Preston Market is a hole :)

[dave30]

Some on should make a book, the food lovers guide to melbourne sporting ground canteens

[nonna]

If only there were 2 for 1 coupons. :(


I have a footy ground across the road from me that I buy giant python lolly things from. so yum

[Victory2006]

the cevaps from the preston markets are from the guy at dandenong! offtopic:

lol, nah, I'm referring to the crappy Maco ones. There are a few different people selling cevapi at Preston Market. The ones that come from Dunav (Springvale actually :p) are brilliant.

[nonna]

oh, yeah, thats right. knew the name- forgot where from. :)

[Victory2006]

lol, I remember once my old lady bought some from the Cro's at Preston Market, I think theirs had far too much pork in them, they were almost white, and attrocious. :eek:

[PMFC]

Lipton Drive in Thomastown is home to the best Cevapi :D

Richmond best food
Preston best Cevapi mainly because i havnt tryed them anywhere else...
Worst drinks has to be at the Veneto club

[PMHC]

Cro's at Preston Market........hmmmm......not right

[stinger]

i tell ya what is a disgrace kingston, overpriced crap, and very poor facilities for doing wee wees...

[Victory2006]

[makedonia1903]

Bitola Social Club? if yes, THEY ARE THE BEST, D'Ds in epping are nice as well

Preston best Cevapi mainly because i havnt tryed them anywhere else...


use the correct term KEBAPI

[makedonia1903]

while Preston were playing at Epping i had oppertunity to try few things, but souvlaki there is very good, they are missing garlic sause though

still nothing beats a roll of KEBAPI with hot red piper (hot bukovska piper) at Preston's ground

[acmilan_victory]

while Preston were playing at Epping i had oppertunity to try few things, but souvlaki there is very good, they are missing garlic sause though


If you can be fucked waiting 30 mins for your food at the canteen and missing the enitre 2nd half..

[VICTORY*PRIDE]

Bullean has great steak rolls but the practise match for victory there they wernt up to standard:mad:

Prestons B.T Conner have the best kebabs in Australia big call but its true:)

[makedonia1903]

If you can be fucked waiting 30 mins for your food at the canteen and missing the enitre 2nd half..

one reason why Epping is a poor stadium for modern day standards, the fact that its now where near the action, and the fact that theres only one makes it hard, same as Bulleen

acmilan_victory i went to the ground roughly 3-4 hours before kickoff, so i had plenty of time to buy what i want and watch how much i like :)

[Victory2006]

Shit you would have been bored 3-4 hours before a VPL match lol.

[vasili61]

BOB JANE STADIUM, the best

[VICTORY*PRIDE]

BOB JANE STADIUM, the best

the chicks I saw last night were off. :spew: :lol:

[Carlton life member]

local paper says Richmond is under threat of the VPL stopping using the ground

so their food supremacy may become history
that would be sad

[nonna]

why? whats wrong with the ground???

[Carlton life member]

there was story in the Melbourne Times

they said that the FFV is going to limit the number of grounds in use following a fight between fans recently
and Richmond might be not one of the chosen ones

[nonna]

Richmond's ground is tops. Its always been one of the best to play on.... and and and the food is so nice.....


:wah:

[nonna]

ps. how does that prevent fights? I dungeddit.

[Carlton life member]

could be a bit of a beat up by Richmond to try to make sure it doesn't happen

I think the theory is that only a few grounds have good facilities for crowd control.

[nonna]

oh. still sounds weird.

[rev]

oakleigh- best souvas
weribee afc (afl)- best hotdogs going around, bar none.

[AussieHool]

There are very few grounds capable of controlling the NCF when we are on the rampage.

FFV is bringing in ground rationalisation in because they know the NCF will very soon wipe out several grounds.

[s3tTz]

Thought I should start a VPL/State/Provvy foodies thread, where you can rate the quality of food at the clubs you've visited this season. One thing is for sure, it kicks arse over anything you're likely to buy this winter (read: ever) at Telstra Dome or the MCG.

Richmond - Kransky Roll. $? Kranskys were quite big and filling, though I was hoping that they were grilled, rather than boiled. Served in a long crusty roll with onion and topped with tomato sauce and American mustard. 7/10

Melbourne Knights - Cevapcici Rolls. $6. Grilled on a hotplate, and put into a long roll with cabbage. I had my doubts about the cabbage, but it complemented them perfectly. Bit of of dead horse on top, and washed down with a beer. Heavenly. 9/10

I was at Somers Street last night for the first time in years, and, frankly, I was very disappointed by the lack of cevapcicis. A Croatian club with no cevaps? FFS.
Knights were shit as well. Need some strong bodies and more pace.
I ate all the cevapis. Sen-bloody-sational! :hungry:

And fuck, I don't understand how any team could've played well on that pitch! I know, blame the drought and all, but Richmond, Altona and Sunshine's pitch wasn't that bad.

[Marcello Lippi]

Cevapcici (Yugoslavian Sausages)

Recipe By : The Frugal Gourmet On Our Immigrant Ancestors
Serving Size : 0 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : New Text Import

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 lb ground lamb
1 lb ground veal
1 lb ground pork
1 large yellow onion, peeled and grated
3 cloves garlic -- peeled and crushed
3 tbsp hot Hungarian paprika, or
sweet paprika and a little cayenne
2 tbsp freshly ground black pepper
Salt to taste
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
Olive oil for basting

Mix all the ingredients, except the oil, thoroughly and roll the mixture into
little “cigars” about 1 inch by 3 inches. Rub lightly with olive oil and grill
or broil until done. These are great on the barbecue.

They were grilled on a hotplate, and put into a roll with cabbage. I had my doubts about the cabbage, but it complemented them perfectly. Bit of of dead horse on top, and washed down with a beer. Heavenly.

[Marcello Lippi]

wow they are extremely quick to make by the looks of that ^^

[The twisted wheel]

wow they are extremely quick to make by the looks of that ^^

And when you've finished frying them, there's this red oil left, which can then be used to fry other stuff. :peace:
The pitch was pretty bobbly.

[Dantè Hicks]

You fry them ??? :o :eek:

They deserve nothing less than a BBQ.

you buy them already mixed ready to cook. Good and bad ones will depend on the butcher you go to.

I am thinking of your benefit here. Seriously, frying them doesn't do them any justice. On a BBQ is where they need to be prepared.

[RunnaLittle]

get the mince from Dunav on Springvale Rd.

Slavonija Deli at Preston market uses their mince too...

[Seb]

Cevapis - $5.50
Meat was cooked on a hot plate. Tasted awesome.
In a roll which had cabbage, then the Cevapi with fried onion and capiscum on top. Finished with a bit of dead horse.

9/10

Dante's receive 10/10 from me though. :)

You are, of course, right, and I thank you for the advice.
On the wider subject of football food, they had great cevaps down at Chelsea Croatia. Teamed up with a plastic cup of slivovitz (?) after a game. Gold.
Sunshine Polonia had great sausages.
South Wantirna had some truly appalling souvlaki. Like eating the crutch out of Cretan shepherd's leather pants.
Ringwood had weird clog wog pickled fish thingos, but had those great Pofertjies (again, spelling)

Hamburger and souva at Clifton Hill

[MVFC_082]

Richmond's Kransky's are excellent, but their Hamburgers are also awesome.

[s3tTz]

They looked massive! I must try one next time.

[scottywong]

I will tell you one thing. Growing up an afl man I have visited a number of clubs in the east & thought the food wanst bad, a pie at Heathmont was good, hotdog at Kilsyth good.

But last pre-season I went to a few vpl grounds to watch Victory play and OMG, the food at these venue is just amazing, with many things I have not seen before (joys of being a skip I guess). The sausage (term doesnt do justice) in bread with onion etc at Bullen, devine. The souva at Oakliegh was just fantastic and the food at epping wasnt bad. Looks like I have to go to smmors street now.

This winter I think I will be going to see football, not only because I find the game better but the food is great at a reasonable price, wash it down with a bevvie or 2 and bingo, a great saturday arvo.

They smelt good enough. I was flat broke on Saturday night, forgot to go to the ATM beforehand, barely had enough cash for admission. Wasn't going to leave once I got in - it was hard enough to get a parking spot! I only had $2 for a packet of cashews.
