First purchase from Inala's fish market!

Today we finally went to Inala's market after talking about it for weeks. Their fish is cheaper compared to Coles/Woolworths. However, if you prefer fillet type of fish, you would probably stick to Coles/Woolies. Their market is very similar to South East Asian type of wet market. They will prepare the fish for you as per your preference.

I would highly recommend Inala's fish market and we will definitely be heading there more often :)
