Hong Keung Seafood and Meat Market

one of my favorite places to get seafood! Everything is so fresh. The staff is very friendly and attentive too. I went over the weekend and I got a half pound of shrimp, 1 fillet of tilapia and 1 (giant) filet of salmon. Total? $ 9.50. Beats Whole Foods and any other store in terms of price and freshness.

Well, since there are tons of these places lined all along Chinatown, this review isn’t exactly going to be eye opening. What’s good about this place though, is beyond the front, where you can get a pound of head-​off medium shrimp for what 4.50 a pound (to hell with Whole Foods or any other supermarket), and their scallops for just as cheap, they have in the back a frozen section and some groceries as well which makes it a good all around stop during a Saturday afternoon when picking up supplies for the next few weeks. It’s so comforting to know that making 3 pounds of shrimp last for a couple months in your freezer when you paid less than 15 dollars for it.
Don’t worry, they speak good english here. For those of you who don’t do dialects.
