Ask any serious maachh eater in the area where they buy their fish and they’ll all mention the sisters. Popular with everyone from homesick Bengalis {Finely Chopped’s Kalyan Karmakar swears by their ilish} to local restaurants {BAD Café does some mean specials using their snapper and sardines}, this stall knows how to procure and butcher every kind of fish under the sun – and they charge almost half the prices of a Pescafresh or Cambay.
The best day for a visit is Saturdays as that’s when they stock a larger catch. Our recommendations – their alive and kicking mud crabs, the always fresh galda/freshwater chingri, and their perfectly-sized Red Snappers – great for grilling or roasting whole.
