My city is in the sea shore (a port). I want to share with you the market in the city center, near my floor. There are many shops, probably about 50, I took pics of only some. Here you can estimate the variety of fish and the prices. When the photos were taken it was early in the morning, for what there are no people buying and the owners are placing the fish, an hour later possibly would be difficult to see the fish because many people come to buy. Please share pics of your fish market with us...

We eat mostly salmon and tilapia at home, sometimes halibut or sea bass. Occasionally, we also eat fresh shrimp and crab when they flown in from the Gulf of Mexico once a month. There is a vendor who sells from the back of a truck in ice chests. Do you have some good recipes for your fish, Mariae?

You captured the early morning hours at the fish market well. It would be interesting to have a picture with the crowds to show the difference. Having grown up and worked in NY City when I was younger, I know how crowded it can get. Where I live they don't have this large a market. In New York City they do. All the local fish stores buy from there and then sell to us.

Oh, I like fish too, but I'm afraid that's one thing I don't like to cook. I do love to eat it in a nice restaurant though! ;) I favor trout, or most any mild flavored fish.

Our selection found in local stores are pathetic. Ej So.Cal.

It's called 'Codfather's'. I will go this week again and take my camera this time. But your fish market is just spectacular! The only market I've been to that has any amount of fish is the Pike Street Market in Seattle.

It is a good idea, Terryk, I will take some more pics at midday next week, yo see the difference.

There is quite a variety, but it's still nothing compared to a European market. I throw in the flowers because that's my favorite part of the market. Plus the famous sign. Suzyqt1968 - Washington, Zone "7-8"   Mariae  Posted on Wednesday, November 15, 2006 - 05:27 pm:    There is the market building, in top (windows) there are fruits and vegs and in the basement it is the fish market. The market with some people, at midday, not many. When there are many people is in friday or saturday at about 1200-1300 hours. This is the city market, of course there are fishstores in many more places as superstores, but I love to go here because you have many places together for choosing the quality and the prices.
