Hi everyone! Over the weekend, a group of friends and I went over to South Melbourne Market to try out some oysters and sea urchin. It was my first time there and I was shocked by the crowd! There was people queuing up in almost every single food stall. We decided to have some hot food before having oysters so I decided to try out a chicken burrito. The burrito was really good but quite messy to eat, I ended up getting it all over me😫. It cost $12 dollars and you can choose between chicken and pork. 

After the burrito, we went over to the oyster bar! The oysters and sea urchin looked so fresh!😍 The store served their oysters in trays but you can also get them in singles if you’re not sharing. The oysters cost $1.67 each and I definitely think it was worth the price. I could only eat 3 as I was so full from the burrito. The stall also provided lemon slices, soy sauce and other kind of sauces at their tables for patrons that plan on eating their oysters there! I also tried a little bit of sea urchin for the first time which I quite liked but I am not sure if I love it. The texture was different but it worked with the soy sauce. One of my friend did not like it though so I am guessing it is one of those things where you either hate it or love it?😂 The sea urchin cost $8 each. I would suggest trying it out if you have not already.

 

Let me know if you guys have tried the oysters and sea urchins before and if you haven’t, would you? The next post is going to be on desserts that you can find at South Melbourne Market! So if you’ve got a sweet tooth like me, stay tuned!😚
