Sydney Fish Markets-Japanese

We met at The Sydney Fish markets Di Costi for the freshest Sashimi in town. Then we headed to the outside tables by the harbour to fight with the seagulls over whose sashimi it really was. We had to queue for some Japanese grilled scallops, and fight for a table, but luckily it was a sunny pleasant day, and sketching whilst in the queue calmed our frustrations! I hope The Sydney Fish Market can pick up its game. Many vendors have succumbed to popular demand, and the sushi was far from the divine sushi it used to be a few years ago. Too many imports and not a delicate cut in sight. I am happy to report though that De Costi still has the same fresh high quality seafood as always. Take a look at some of our sketches. Pretty good for complete beginners I must say! Well done.
