If you like seafood fresh from the catch, these days you really have to catch it yourself of go down to the market and make friends with a fishmonger. However, at the township of Strahan in the southwest corner of Tasmania there’s a fish and chip shop that sells the freshest and best value seafood I’ve come across in a long long time. I bought a dozen Bruny Island oysters which were shucked in front of me for $17 when a week ago they were $35 on the menu at Prosser’s in Hobart. We also bought whole crayfish for $40 that had sweet and tender meat, and when you break the legs, the meat just pulls out in whole pieces. A little piece of seafood heaven. Tip: Skip the Fish Cafe that’s owned by the Strahan Village operation and head across the street to Schwoch.
