Hi, we will be making our first visit to Alpensia in mid Dec and will be staying at Holiday Inn Resorts. Any idea what the dining options are in the area? Will like to check this out as we will be travelling with a 4yo kid. TIA.

There are fastfood, Japanese & Korean restaurants. U can also buy some food stuff from the convenience store to cook yourself.

the convenience shop in alpensia really don't have much.. snacks, bread, ice creams..don't have like fresh ingredients for cooking. we ended up eating out eventhough plan to cook as apartment has full kitchen.

Next round, will book hotel instead since no need to cook.

Is it? I thought I've seen review some where that they do sell some fresh ingredients, just that we need to buy early as the stock is low.. Hmm.. Thinking of making simple breakfast.. :scratchhead:

I didn't see any fresh ingredients. There is a burger joint, map food, korean food, pizza (closed whilst I was there), fried chicken and beer and some others.

Its snowing today in Jeju. Very cold. Pls bring extra heatpack when outdoors as the snowstorm plus the wind can be very chilling for children. Tomorrow will b going to Yeongpyong resort. Expect even colder weather there. Burrr!!!
