The fish market in Sydney is very famous. Every time I travel, no matter how long it takes, I must visit the local churches and markets, because one is the most metaphysical and secular, and the other is the most metaphysical and secular. I have seen both, and I have a general idea of the life and character of the local people. Of course, I won't miss this famous fish market when I go to Sydney this time. Fortunately, it is open from 7: 11 a.m. to 4: 11 p.m. on Sunday. If you don't have to go to the fish auction early in the morning, you can sleep comfortably until late in the morning, and then take the tram at the Central Railway Station. There is a special stop at the fish market, so you can't miss it. When I arrived, I found that almost everyone got off the bus, but they all came to this fish market.
I felt disappointed at first from a distance, because unlike the Sapporo Seafood Morning Market or San Francisco Fisherman's Wharf, which I visited, it was completely open-air with a lively and noisy atmosphere, but it was orderly in two blue and white buildings, one big and one small, which seemed very unsatisfactory. Walking in, I was shocked by the huge Atlantic salmon and emperor fish lying on the iceberg. The whole picture of this large fish is really rare at ordinary times.
Of course, the Australian stone oyster is a must-try. No matter what the bay produces, there are two kinds of oysters I eat. One is big, gray, crisp and juicy, and the sea water tastes strong. The price ranges from 11.9 to 19.9 Australian dollars a dozen. The bigger the oyster, the more expensive it is, but the most expensive one is only a dozen yuan. I have a limited appetite, of course, try to pick the best ones. The other kind is small, milky, full, sweet, and people who are afraid of the fishy smell of oysters will probably like it, but the aftertaste is slightly bitter.
Australians eat oysters according to the bay, such as Tasmanian oysters, which are very famous. Later, when I arrived in Adelaide, the locals were proud that their oysters were pollution-free, saying that there was pollution in the bay near Sydney. However, I have been crazy about oysters all over Australia and have never had any problems.
Later, I ate oysters in a Sydney restaurant several times. No matter whether it is a modern Australian or Italian restaurant, there must be an oyster as an appetizer, but even in a high-end restaurant, the quality of oysters can't be compared with the fish market, and the price is almost doubled. So oyster fans must not miss the fish market.
Is it the first time to eat fresh abalone here? D? D Of course, people in China are used to dried abalone dishes. Many people think that fresh abalone is too tough. In fact, if you have a chance to deal with the whole fresh abalone, you will find that it is tough on the outside and soft on the inside, and the taste of each part is different, and it is particularly salty and tough. In contrast, the soft and rotten dried abalone is like the taste of the elderly. However, I recommend sliced fresh abalone for sashimi if possible. It is really beneath a lady's dignity to fight alone with the whole abalone.
In the market, except for the big and small shrimps, soldiers and crabs who are trapped in the ice, there are stalls for making and eating now. Many fish, shrimps and squid are fried with French fries, like beer snacks. Many local customers ordered a pile of fish, shrimp, squid rings and French fries at the stalls, and went out to eat with amazing plates like hills.
Although I didn't eat badly in the fish market, I can't help but say something bad about Sydney people. I don't know how to cook fresh seafood, and I don't know how to appreciate raw food! Originally, lobster was also a famous local product, but the practice of many stalls was cheese? H, occasionally boiled white, it's not attractive at all. How does it compare with Guangdong people, where half pieces are sashimi and half are cooked into delicious lobster porridge?
But compared with other famous seafood markets, the greatest fun here is to combine eating seafood with picnicking. There are two rows of tables and chairs outside the market, and you can enjoy the sea view while eating and basking in the sun. There were not enough seats, so people brought plaid cloth, and the whole family sat on the grass and simply had a picnic.
In any case, I was always unwilling to eat lobster when I went to the fish market. I ordered half a cheese-lobster (with salad and French fries) and ate it on the grass. I immediately regretted that almost half of it was rubber cheese-mashed potatoes. 21 Australian dollars might as well eat a dozen good oysters. A seagull came over and gave me a nasty bite, which startled me. Simply put the whole plate on the grass and invite them to eat. At that moment, I made a little splash. Dozens of seagulls gathered in the wind. In less than a minute, I cleaned up half a lobster and French fries that I had never touched at all, and I didn't forget to pick my mouth and spill salad leaves all over the floor. The wind from their flapping wings messed up my hair. Everyone stopped eating, surprised and laughing. It was too late for the cleaner to come and stop him with a frown. I'm sorry to him for putting the salad on the plate and putting it in his dustpan carefully. I know it's not good to do this, but by the way, it's quite exciting to do.
