I like fish. I like them on my plate even more. And since I'm still under the impression of HiveFest, here's a short story from Split.
While looking for the MeΕ‘troviΔ Gallery in Split, where the presentations were on the first day, I found a way on Google Maps from the old town to the seaside and another twenty-minute walk.
It was a sunny and beautiful day, and I didn't feel like looking for a bus or a taxi, so I just went for a walk.
Still in the old center, in a small square, but about 100 meters from the Riva promenade on the seafront, I saw a building where people were coming out with bags of fish (I don't have a picture of the entrance) and I said I'd go and see what they have to offer, I had more than enough time. As Split is quite a big city, I am sure this is not the only fish market.
It was just after 7am. Best time to buy fresh fish, usually brought directly from the nets by the fishermen. I was surprised because there was no particular crowd.
The fish on offer was quite solid, and the prices were reasonable. Cod, small ones at β¬6 a kilo, bigger ones at β¬8.
Sardines and mackerels are my favorites.
To avoid any inconvenience, I first asked each seller if I could take photos. They were all very friendly, of course, of course, you can take pictures. You can also buy something if you want!
I would love to buy something, but I don't have anywhere in my room to prepare them π :)
And then a bit bigger. Turbots, gobies, squids, and even rays were on offer.
Scorpionfish, black seabream, shrimps.
Sea bass, which are most likely farmed.
An excellent selection for lovers of seafood, and finally, another swordfish and tuna steak :)
All fresh, straight from the sea, caught early in the morning. I was almost getting hungry, but it was time to move on.
Thank you for your attention.
It was another Split story.
