In the previous two posts, we published the topics of sea fish and fresh water fish. This time we will talk about the names of aquatic product.
You will learn how to say oyster, lobster, cuttlefish and etc in this post.
Again the information is abstracted from the food database built by the Association For Hong Kong Catering Services Management Ltd. It categorized the food into different sorts – sea fish, meat, vegetable and etc.
There are no related photos in this post, but you can find the photos by clicking the Chinese characters which are linked to the database.
