Panama Fish Market
Posted by editor Boquete
It was about noon when I arrived the the Seafood Market. The plaque on the wall said it was built with money from Japan in 2005. It looks and feels more than three years old. I am not sure why there never seems to be a budget to maintain capital projects. Large investments fall into disrepair all too quickly.
The lower floor of this market is laden with fish and other seafood.
The upper floor is a restaurant that provides the opportunity to carry some fresh seafood home, internally.
I arrived at 12:30 and seating was filled. After I looked at a menu I understood why.
Click on this for a menu big enough to read.
Fresh seafood, prepared fast and for very low prices.
My lunch was one of my favorites
Pescado Frito, a whole fried fish for $3.75. It was light, flaky and although I have no idea what type of fish it was I enjoyed it completely.
