A Trip to Pantai Remis Fish Wholesale Warehouse - Fresh Daily Catch

After a hearthy breakfast at Star Orient Resort hotel, we drove to Pantai Remis to buy fish from the wholesaler there. We stopped by the wholesaler warehouse that we bought fishes from our previous trip but found that they do not have any fresh catch in stock. Therefore we just scout around the area to see which fishery have any leftover stock from the early morning catch. We found Sheng Hai Seng fishery and they have a few types of seafood to offer. Unfortunately they do not have any prawns! Anyway, we bought a huge Talang (Queenfish), treadfins, bawal cermin (a type of pomfret), mackerel (tenggiri), squid and another type of fish which I am not sure of its' name. We left the place with a whole ice box full of fish which would last us for at least 3 weeks! LOL! All these fishes cost RM120 which is the wholesaler price to us.

Not much to offer because the fishermen would only come in with their catch around 4pm in the evening.

The worker cleaning the Talang fish for us. Normally talang are used to make salted fish but it also taste good if cooked with Tau Cheo (fermented bean paste). This large talang cost us Rm38. (USD 12)

Ice box is full! Time to hit the road!
