SteemFoods Contest -12| Promote Your Favorite Fish Shop !

Hello Friends ,
It's @besticofinder and this is my entry for the contest "SteemFoods Contest -12-| Promote Your Favorite Fish Shop !". Sri Lanka is a island which is surrounded by Indian ocean. So as a country we have lot of fish harvest and Sri Lankan meals are very much associated with fish. When thinking about the places we use to buys fish , actually there are lot of ways. We got fisherman's who brings fish to home front by foot cycles or there are lot of fish selling stalls in the beach side. In our local sinhala language we call them "Malu Laali". That means they keep fresh fish on large wooden stages and sell them. But with the COVID 19 situation we are not going too far to buy fish as usual. These days I normally buy fish from our nearby super market. So I thought of I should review it for this contest.

First thing I love about this place is , it has a large car park. Normally Katubedda junction is a very busy place and we don't have enough space in road sides to park our vehicles. But Keells Super provides a very good parking space for the customers .. it's capable to park more than 100 vehicles at once.

And the next thing I love about this place is it 100% follows the health guidelines provided by the Sri Lankan government. We have to follow some steps before entering the market. First a security officer measures our temperature using a digital thermometer. And after that she sprays sanitizers to our hands.

After that we have to provide the contact information to the record book provided. Normally they request our name , address and a contact number. After giving that information and if temperature is good we can enter.

Keells Super provide sanitizers to their customers. We can use them as we need before entering and when leaving the super market. After entering the super market I directly went to the fish section. I must mention my wife @vishwara supported my to take all these photographs.

This is the fish section of the Keells Super . Normally in Sri Lanka we can find the following fish types. Thora ( Spanish mackerel), Parawa ( Trevallies) , Thalapath (Sail fish) , Suddaha (Threadfin breams ) , Hurulla (Trenched sardinella) , Bolla (Bigeye scade ) , Savalaya (Ribbon fish ) , issa (prawn ), della (Squids). And there are many more types. I love to eat squids. So I wanted to buy some. They have mentioned all the prices and it's very easy to decide which to buy and how much depending on our budget.

But something I always think is to buy fresh fish or frozen. But when we are buying frozen fish it's somewhat difficult to determine the quality. It should be a place you trust. We can check following things .. we can check the eyes, if they are bit cloudy that means it's bit old. Normally new fish has clear eyes. And you can are checking for fillets. Good fish has uniformly distributed color fillets but aged fish has faded color fillets. I trust this place as I have taken fish from here lot of times and I do not have any negative experience.

Following are the latest prices of fish at Keells Super market at Katubedda. And this market has a delivery service too. If we need we can order fish online and only a small delivery charge will be added. That service is very valuable for the times like this.

As you can see here we can find very fresh fish and they are displayed properly. So we can check them and decide. When speaking about the service at fish section. There is a dedicated staff member for the fish section. We can request her support whenever we need. And I like to buy covered food these days than in open markets. Because it's a one way which COVID can reach us. So these are safely displayed covered with a glass cabinet. I really value that action.

After selecting the type of fish. We have to mention the amount of weight we need and staff member will help to measure and pack them. Then we have to make the payment at the counter. As you can see it was little odd for her as we were taking photographs , 😝 😝 but I kindly explained her the purpose.
