[00:00:22]>> But no, we're going to show you sort of how you walk through it, what they've got, how it works. Also, what you can do here is you can buy seafood and have it cooked up for you in different restaurants. So, we're going to kind of walk you through that process, show you how easy or hard it might be, and just kind of generally give you an idea of whether it's worth coming to this market or not. So, stick with us.

[00:05:24]>> Okay. So, we stopped at one of these restaurants because it's got like air conditioning. They're cooking the food up out there. This is what it costs to get everything cooked. So, there's different prices for different things.

[00:05:37]We have got So, we've got garlic fried shrimp and they're 150. It's like 50 a kilo to grill them instead of barbecue them, but we're going to get garlic fried. That looks good for 150. And then we're going to get this one. Garlic butter clams. So, we've gone garlic.

[00:05:58]Garlic.

We have the Bubba who you can hear in the background who um obviously we got this big stroller for him. So, we are limited on where we can go and get it through there, but it's just like a bit of a pain pushing through everyone and you don't actually get to see anything. So, I had a quick look through there on my own and we settled for like a little offshoot that no one seemed to be shopping at. Wasn't so busy. So, yeah. Good.

[00:17:28]>> Drinking the sauce from the bottom of the plate when the prawns are finished.

[00:17:31]It was so good.

[00:17:32]>> So good. But the whole experience, I mean, it could have been really overwhelming and intimidating and all of that, but actually it wasn't too bad.

[00:17:41]Like you just go over there, they're like, "Yeah, however much you want. You pick what you want, you pay, that's it, and then you >> The guy gave us a deal on the prawn price, but looking at the other stall, so we're about 300. You probably like haggle and get it a bit cheaper.

[00:18:28]>> There's other stuff on that menu. I now I'm thinking I want to eat like I'm not big. We're not big lobster people, are we? I much prefer crab over lobster.

[00:18:35]>> Yeah. You know, >> I eat a prawn a pile of prawns over a lobster, I think, as well.
