Billingsgate Fish Market

Morning person? Then,you have got to head out to London's best fish market: Billingsgate, during saturdays. It opens around 4 in the morning and it is the place where all chefs from restaurants in London go to buy seafood for their menu. 

In order to bring something with you home I advice you to be there before 6.30. 

 

I went there this saturday and came home with 2 kilos of crayfish for £9. A true bargain, however be sure to scrutinize what ever you are buying. I could only make use of less than a fourth of what I bought sincethe rest  of them were dead when arriving home. However this could be due to the amount of time it took us to cook them from the time we got home. A bit too much dill were used otherwise they turned out great. Beer, salt and samphire (an edible plant that grows along coastlands) where put in to give flavour. We even managed to get hold of Skåne schnaps at Scandinavian Kitchen.
