I was asked about this in a picture which only showed this seafood outlet in a corner, so here's a full view.
I've never tried it, but it usually has a queue of people when it opens and customers know best!
As seen on a walk.

Feeding on a sea urchin, this small Mediterranean rainbow wrasse (Coris julis) is a colourful fish that can be found in the Mediterranean Sea and in the northeast Atlantic Ocean from Sweden to Senegal.
Coris julis is a sequential hermaphrodite: all start in the smaller initial phase. These initial-phase individuals (both females and males) can turn into the larger secondary-phase males. At a length of about 18 cm (7.1 in), all individuals are secondary-phase males. The maximum length for the species is 25 cm (9.8 in). There is a marked difference in the appearance of the two phases. In the Mediterranean Sea, the secondary-phase male is green, blue, or brown, with a white belly, a dark blue spot over the ventral fin, and a bright orange band on the side, while the smaller primary-phase females and males are brown with yellowish sides and white bellies.
I took this shot after the Mako Seafood float had closed. But I can vouch for their fine seafood chowder. The closest I've come to New England Chowder since Boston days. There are two levels on this float. The bottom one serves fresh fish to cook at home, and the top floor serves cooked seafood.
There was no one around on this chilly summer evening. But the highlight for me here is the way the mountain is gently backlit by the sun which had set quite some time before.
[Best to enlarge this one and look around. In the background you'll see Lark's Distillery and a replica of Douglas Mawson's Antarctic Hut.]
The night before I took my previous two shots uploaded today, I decided to set up this shot and see how it worked out. It is a deliberate attempt to create something like Edward Hopper's iconic painting, "Nighthawks" (1942).
Each window has a story to tell (please do enlarge), from the diners to the fish processing rooms on the ground floor. And of course you will recognise the giant red lobster on the roof. The alley between the buildings on the left hand side also leaves you with a feeling of expectation - who might walk around that corner?
A wide variety of canned seafood.

During a long fascinating uphill walk through Montmartre that begins at the Moulin Rouges and ends at Sacré-Cœur, here where Rue Lepic meets Rue des Abbesses is a great first stop for sidewalk seafood. That is unless you had already stopped at the nearby Café des Deux Moulins.

A unique restaurant set-up seen in downtown Paducah. Unfortunately this restaurant has been closed for several years.
Whaler's Catch restaurant, Paducah, KY (closed)

This is the way tha a lot of seafood is sold in SE Asia. A lack of refrigeration means that this is the most practical way of keeping food fresh. Most of the fish is then taken from the tank, bashed over the head and sold. Certainly a far cry from the processed and packaged way that I used to see fish being sold!
Sankaku Seafood Market also known as Otaru's Triangle Market with it's many seafood stalls and restaurants bustling with locals and visitors along a narrow alleyway.

I had a few thoughts for this week for the Macro Mondays theme of "Stick" but here I have decided to go with my first thought of "Seafood Sticks" which is how it appears on the packaging but they can also be called "Crab Sticks" or "Ocean Sticks" but I guess that's irrelevant as long as they are sticks.
I could have presented them as they are but always one to enjoy eating my subject after photographing it I placed them on some salad and drizzled some Balsamic Dressing all over and sprinkled them with Black Pepper for added visual and taste effect.
