Auckland Fishmarket





Auckland has a great fish market. This may come as no surprise to many considering it is surrounded by water! We spent a great morning with Rich, Kath and Amelie down at the fish market. Harry and Matilda both really loved the incredible variety of massive whole fish. Unfortunately, there was great distress when Matilda wasn't allowed to pick her own fish to take home. This was mostly due to the fact that we did not actually know how to cook the fish Matilda chose ...or indeed what it was called!
In the end we decided to get a large salmon and snapper. The bonus about this market is that you can choose a whole fish and take it to "the nice man" and watch him fillet it for you. Fantastic!
