Musherabad Fish Market

Elder K and I made our way back to the fish market with Jane (works at the Embassy and is here for 2 years), Nikhit and Madhu. We left at 6:30 in the morning and were back to our apartment by 9 p.m. Then we went to the Mondu Veggie Market...Great day....See the guy holding the fish over Jane's head??
This was one of the biggest fish we saw.

Baby Shark





These fish are kept alive until they sell them. They say they are best if cooked immediately after the fish dies. See the fish jumping into his face....It was hilarious watching them try to keep the fish in the pans.

This man cleaned our crab and shrimp. We had the best feast Saturday night. Crab, Shrimp, Homemade Rolls, Baked Potatoes....and a new cucumber salad that Nasareen taught me how to make...Hmmmmmm.....
I asked Nikhit on a scale of 1-10 (10 being the best), How was his dinner....He said...."Absolutely a 10!!! Jane also came for dinner. Madhu hates fish and isn't really crazy about vegetables....He planned to come to dinner but must have lost interest when he heard what the menu was......We tried to talk him into comng anyway.....We like his company....We couldn't talk hard enough or fast enough to change his mind!!1




She's cleaning and cutting eel.






These workers are scaling the fish...Bad job....
