This seafood stall in Xiamen's Eighth Market is incredibly fresh

Xiamen's Eighth Market is a true foodie paradise, a place many celebrities have visited. The sheer variety of seafood is dazzling, and with so many stalls packed together, it's hard to choose where to eat. My friends took me to a fantastic place. ✨ When I first walked in, seeing the long layout of the dining area, I thought it was just like any other place. But then I discovered it had a second floor and private rooms! For this area of the Eighth Market, this place is quite spacious. They use fair scales here, so you don't have to worry about being shortchanged – you can eat with peace of mind. 👍 The kitchen is open, and if you sit on the first floor, you can see everything being prepared. 🦀 Steamed snow crab: As soon as the snow crab arrived, the delicious aroma filled the air. Steaming preserves the natural sweetness of the crab. The crab meat is delicate and tender, melting in your mouth with a fresh, sweet flavor. Every bite is a gift from the sea. 🦐 Typhoon Shelter-style prawns: Golden, crispy fried garlic covers the prawns, and the aroma alone is mouthwatering. The prawn meat is firm and springy. With each bite, you first get the fragrance of garlic and the fried coating, followed by the natural sweetness of the prawn. These large prawns are incredibly satisfying. 🐉 Steamed lobster: The lobster's presentation is impressive, immediately grabbing everyone's attention. After steaming, the lobster meat is glistening, tender, and delicious. The springiness and sweetness of the meat blend perfectly. It's truly divine. 🦀 Brown crab: The brown crab is full of roe. Scoop it out with a spoon and savor the rich, creamy, and intensely flavorful roe. The crab meat is also very tender, making for a truly enjoyable experience. 🐚 Arctic surf clams: The Arctic surf clams are cooked just right, offering a crisp, sweet, and fresh taste without any fishy smell. Served with vermicelli noodles, they are simply delicious. 🦀 Pan-fried crab with roe: Pan-frying gives the crab a crispy, golden-brown shell while keeping the roe inside plump and moist. Cracking open the shell releases an amazing aroma, and the crab meat takes on a delightful char from the pan-frying.
