Sydney Fish Market

Sydney Fish Market is the largest market of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere and the world's second largest seafood market in terms of variety. Over 14,500 tonnes of seafood is traded annually from both national and international suppliers with up to a hundred species of sustainable Australian seafood traded every day.


Decided I should try some abalone after recommendation, this is what they looked like before I had one 'sashimied'  (cleaned and thinly sliced) glad I didn't take that task on myself, there would have been injuries!


I didn't get these but look at how beautiful they were!

The spoils of my fish market journey! I have to say the abalone was not delicious raw, tasted like the ocean (which was fine) but had a very tough texture (something I couldn't get over). I coated the pieces in some breadcrumbs and fried them up and then enjoyed the scrumptious flavour I had heard about. The king prawns were very very tasty and I felt like a true Aussie as I chowed down.
