Sydney Fish Market

Hello!!!

I am having a week of easter break now, so we decided to be a tourist and went to the Fish Market to eat seafood. This is my 2nd time there as I went there with my parents when they were here in Sydney. I used to hate the fish market because of the fishy smell. But this place was full of cooked and yummy seafood instead of the dead and smelly seafood. But here, you can get fresh seafood straight from the sea and you can even get fresh cooked seafood as well. You can choose the way to cook your seafood as they have ready available cooked seafood! If you are in sydney and crave for seafood, this place is definitely where you would want to be =)

We bought the cooked seafood 'off shelves' and we ate them on the spot.

#1 Baked Scallops: This is my favorite dish of all!!! The scallops are super juicy!!! I really like the texture of the scallops and they are really fresh.
#2 Lobster: I am not really a fan of lobster, so I think the lobsters tasted super bland and not that fresh. Don't buy lobsters from the stall (Peters or something) if you want nice lobsters. You can try to get them from other stalls. There are a few stalls to choose from.
#3 King Crab: This king crab actually tasted quite good. I like the meat inside the legs. Be careful when you try to dig out the meat because the legs are quite sharp, I was pricked for a few times =(
#4 Fried Silver Fish: I like this too. It tasted like ikan bilis, just that this is the bigger version of them. It's a bit salty though, you can eat it with rice if you decide to take away and eat it at home.
#5 Salmon, Tuna and Swordfish Sashimi: the salmon and swordfish sashimi are awesome!!! They're like super fresh and sweet!! I love the salmon sashimi best. But the tuna is not really very fresh, it tasted quite weird actually. Although you need to pay extra for the sauce, but they really mix it well.
