The Least Useful Guide to Fukuoka

A local fish market that I sometimes go has recently renewed its website. It used to be very simple, with very general information that everyone already knew.

It was hugely disappointing to find nothing left on the shelves after driving more than 10 km to get there. To avoid this disappointment, we would have to watch the tide and current carefully before making visits so that we could vaguely figure out how much fish would be on the shelves.

The new website answers this problem.  It became very informative, giving update on the day’s catches, seasonal products and so on. Plus, thanks to newly equipped CCTV camera(s) , we can have a look at what's on the shelf at home.

You can close-up the camera and see the amount of the stock, and how fresh the fish is

(I would like to see the price tag as well—hopefully!), and could plan what we should go for beforehand—if the fish of your choice waited for you unsold.
