Perusing the menu, I was incredibly tempted to go for the Seafood Platter (and seeing it delivered to a table nearby, it was definitely my No. 1 choice). Then I was kindly reminded by J that a) There were only two of us, b) The table with the Seafood Platter were sharing it amongst 4 and c) We were going to buy seafood anyway for cooking that night. Fine...
Sitting outside at Doyles.
Bread to start the meal. Assorted Starters: Jumbo Prawns, Salt & Pepper Calamari and BBQ Baby Octopus. Whilst the Jumbo Prawns weren't quite as jumbo as I thought they would be, they were delicious and I'm still trying to work out what was in that dipping sauce.
Doyles Famous Fish and Chips. Admittedly, a gigantic serving!

To be honest, whilst it was nice to have a nice and relaxing lunch (with waiters in attendance, clean cutlery, clean plates, and the last bit of sunlight for the day high up in the sky), I think I actually prefer mingling in with the crowds when it comes to eating at the fish markets. After lunch, we were pushing our way through the various fish stalls to find all our seafood and it was great to see people with their seafood platters piled high; scrambling to get a seat and dig in. And well, it is a lot cheaper! Man, the oysters and salmon sashimi we bought for home were sooooo good!
