Something fishy

One thing I love from Istanbul was all the fresh markets.  The vendors put out all their goods on the street and you can stroll through the market and see so many different things.

Here are some pictures from a seafood market.


The vendor will flip the gills of the fish to show how fresh they are.

One of the best dishes I had was the Hamsi, which is a small fish like the sardines.  They either fry them with a light batter or grill them, and it's delicious.  Here are all the different kinds of seafood and you can see the Hamsi in the lower right.

Then there's this guy, sitting right on top of the tent.  He knows what's up.
