Too much seafood is never enough.

Sensational Sydney Fish Market in Pyrmont Bridge Road is always a hive of activity. We were there on a Monday in July 2018 and it was as crowded as a Sunday.

A very famous name….

The Doyles family first opened their doors in Watsons Bay in 1885. Since then and for over 5 generations, the Doyle family have been serving Australian Seafood in a number of outlets around Sydney.

I’m with my girlfriend Helen Burke in 1982 at one of our many lunches at Doyles.

Australian seafood is as good as you will find anywhere in the world.

As they say in the classics, “shop till you drop” at the Sensational Sydney Fish Market. 🙂

A perfect lunch

Sydney rock oysters & fresh prawns.

Did I mention oysters?

I just spent 4 days on the Gold Coast & 3 times I visited Chevron Island seafood to swallow a dozen Coffin Bay oysters from South Australia. My good friend Frank is the owner & discounted them to $20 a dozen.

Famous Murray Cod.

For some strange reason I don’t think I have ever eaten this iconic Australian fish.

Anyone for a swordfish steak?

Looks very interesting indeed at the Sydney Fish Market.

Sensational Sydney Fish Market still busy after 2 pm.

Half the lunch crowd had left but there were still lots of people eating.

Giant crabs

These monsters would be perfect for a long lunch.
