The Tsukiji fish market is an overwhelming experience, a remarkable living organism of fishmongers, shippers, packers, sellers, and machinery all orchestrated into a extrordinary ballet of movement in the delivery, processing, and sales of seafood. This is the last year at this location between the Sumida River and the upmarket Ginza shopping district, so I feel especially grateful of the opportunity to see it in operation before its inevitable moveto Toyosu, Koto in 2018.
