Sydney Fish Market

I'm a seafood fanatic and this is one of my "must-go" places in Sydney. After visiting Bondi Beach, I'm going to Australia's world famous Sydney Fish Market.

Sydney Fish Market open 7 days per week from 7am till 5pm.

Sydney Fish Market located on Blackwattle Bay in the inner west suburb Pyrmont Bridge Road. The market is a five minute stroll down Pyrmont Bridge Road.

Outside the harbour, there are few tables and chairs where you can sit down and enjoy the sunny weather with some delicious take away meals. But beware of the seagulls.

This little creatures will surrounded you and attempt to steal your meals.

Don't ever feed them because these seagulls were fierce and aggressive. You might get bite or scratch!

Sydney Fish Market are daily wholesale auctions for Sydney's seafood retailers and hosts six seafood retailers, a bottle shop, fruit and veggie market, bakery, sushi bar, restaurants, gift shop and deli.

Many retail shops offer takeaway seafood either in cold platters or cooked on demand. After surveying, we choose "Christie's Seafoods" that offers fresh seafood including sashimi, raw or cooked, prawns, a fantastic selection of fish, shellfish, oysters and more. You can buy it ready-to-eat, take it home to prepare yourself, or try something from their seafood kitchen's extensive menu. Beside that, "Christie's Seafoods" have the market largest selection of live seafood including crabs, lobsters, mussels, abalone that you can even select from the tanks to be freshly cooked.

She was very fast and expert like open it, took it out from the shell and placed it back less than a second. Amazed ;) She asked me to take Pacific Oyster because it's much sweeter and juicy.

We ordered live Rock lobster from the tank that cost approximately AUD $75. Freshly cooked for us without any charges. Asked the chef for deep-fry with sweet and sour sauce.

In fact, I was afraid of holding the lobster -___-ll

I met a new friend, also a single backpacker just like me. She came from Hong Kong and will be traveling around Australia for 3 months. Invited her to share my foods as well. I can't finish it alone.
