Eels, Squids and Crabs... Oh My!

I'm definitely not in Missouri anymore. My first trip to a Chinatown market yesterday yielded much more to my visual palate than the Chinese black vinegar I had gone in search of.



Gigantic, dried squids, near the packaged soups - a popular item.



Would you like your fish pre-dead and gutted? Or alive and kickin'?



Yes - that cooler, on the ground, is filled with slithering live eels. Happy Halloween!



The crabs were my favorite. They are kind of cute, I think.
