The image is a black-and-white photograph, likely from the early 20th century, given the style of clothing and the photographic quality. It depicts an indoor setting, possibly a market or a store, with a man standing next to a large fish. The fish is suspended from the ceiling by a metal hook, and its body is quite elongated, suggesting it could be a species like a shark or a mackerel. The man is wearing a white coat, which is typical attire for a fishmonger or a butcher, indicating his profession. He appears to be presenting the fish, possibly for sale or display.

The background shows other people and various items. There are shelves with jars and other goods, and a sign is visible in the distance, though the text on it is not fully legible. The setting has a utilitarian feel, with wooden beams and a high ceiling, which is common in older marketplaces or stores. The overall atmosphere suggests a busy, working environment where fresh fish is being sold or displayed.

For my tea tonight - #fish stew, made with a bag of Random Fish Bits that the #fishmonger gave me for free. Also some onion fried in butter, leek, tater, parsnip, carrot, garlic, milk, stock, and lemon juice

"The One Question You Should Ask The Butcher To Get Fresh Salmon At The Grocery Store"

Is the question: "Do you know where the #Fishmonger is?"

Because a butcher and a fishmonger have very different jobs.

Fish market, Busan, Fall 2023.

There’s really no way that I could describe the energy of this fish market in Busan and do it justice. It was an energy that I wasn’t able to experience anywhere else in South Korea. It was the only place where nothing was lost in translation.

Regardless of the language barrier between me and the locals, I understood everything happening around me—from the casual conversations that I overheard, to the bartering and eventual transaction between fishmonger and customer. There was no language needed to come to an understanding and I cherished every moment of it.

@beatnikprof I have a favorite cheesemonger. Does that count? I must say, buying cheese from the cheesemonger makes me so happy.

My favorite part about going to the #fishmonger is that I get to say, “I’m going to the fishmonger.”

So far it seems to me that everyone on here is a creative type or is involved with tech.

Then there’s me. Originally a #Fishmonger by trade (but now unable to work as one due to arthritis in my hands) that’s been a #Barman #VanDriver #CateringAssistant #Cook #Labourer #PostalAssistant and sometime #HouseHusband (Several jobs have not been mentioned)

I’m starting a new job in two days training to be a #Bicycle mechanic.

At the age of 51 I’m still unsure what I want to do when I grow up.
