tsukiji market

fresh seafood being sold in the Tsukiji Market. The crabs and the oysters are HUGE! Everything sold are alive and wriggling before u. talk about FRESH stuff!
There are simply amazing combination and variety of fresh food in the market and it doesnt stink coz the stuff are alive. i was amazed! i dun even know some of the stuff they sell there!

I had to stop and figure what the Q was for at 11am in the morning in front of the stores. Then i realised everyone was lining up for the small stalls that sell fresh sushi there. tsujiki sushi are apparently one of tehfreshest. Come on, how much fresher do you get being in the fish market and getting your ingredients few hours ago?! I heard the fish market is moving soon and so i had to drop by and squeeze my face in. hee hee

I was hungry after walking round the fish market and so i stop by the udon stall. This was the one i write about earlier that cost $6 for a plain noodle with a few meat slice. The chef at work and me munching at the table in front of the stall with the blue collar guys:)
