Nijo Seafood Market Sapporo

Was hardly worth a visit.

Nijo Seafood Market Sapporo

Nijo Seafood Market Sapporo Japan left me a little disappointed. After Tsukiji fish market in Tokyo & Kanazawa Omicho fish market I expected more.

Rows of shops opposite each other.

This is obviously the retail section, the wholesale warehouses are 5 or 6 blocks away. Several restaurants are among the shops, including a collection of small bars and restaurants.

Lots of varieties here.

Live, fresh & frozen are all available here at Nijo Seafood Market Sapporo.

Here is a big guy swimming around.

Reminds me of my home on Australia’s Gold Coast during the 90s, I used to catch large mud crabs from my jetty.

Looks like octopus to me.

Nice & chewy for sure.

Flashback to the Gold Coast in Australia 1998.

My secret was to steam them in sake. 🙂

I’m starting to get very hungry. 🙂

You gotta love fresh crab

Makes my mouth water just looking at it. 🙂

Time for lunch.

Nothing fancy just a small hole in the wall.

I settled for the house special which was excellent value at 2500 Yen or $30 AUD.

Farewell to Nijo market

Not everywhere you visit lives up to your expectations, having said that I ticked the box & will move on to bigger & better things. Thanks for visiting my Nijo Seafood Market Sapporo Japan photo blog.
