Garak Market - Part II Fish shops

 Fish tank and we negotiated the price of fish
 The fisherman caught fish, abalones and ascidians
Tada! The fish became sashimi dinner for Lil Gator

Garak market is so huge and hundreds of shops are next to each other. We have never seen so many seafood shops before. Some pickled seafood shops sold famous Korean side dishes and ingredients of Kimchi.
Lil Gator and I wanted to have sashimi dinner and spicy seafood soup with rice! The fisherman was able to catch the fish and cut it as sashimi pieces less than 5 minutes. We were so amazed by his skills!

Garak Market- Part I Vegetable shops


Bellpeppers and Potatoes
What should I buy?

Lil Gator and I are going back to the States (Washington state) next month. So, we decided to check on new places before we head back to the States.
Garak market is like Korean traditional shops in South side of Seoul where people can buy and sell vegetables and seafood. Everything is very cheap and fresh from local farms.
Lil Gator always loves spicy food and chilies. He even sat on the chili box!
