13 Al Darmali, Ash Shamarli WA Zaweyat al Aarag, Qesm Al Gomrok

Walking into the bustling market at 13 Al Darmali, Alexandria felt like stepping into a living mosaic of sights and sounds. The air was thick with the briny scent of freshly caught fish and the distant chatter of vendors haggling over sardines, crab, and calamari. As Strictly Dumpling wandered through narrow stalls piled high with glistening seafood, he paused to choose his bounty—each selection accompanied by a friendly nod from the stallholders who knew exactly how to handle their catch.

The real magic unfolded on the spot when the chosen fish was transformed into a sizzling plate of grilled calamari and crab, all cooked for just a few dollars. The aroma of garlic, lemon zest, and sea salt mingled with the crackle of the grill, creating an irresistible invitation. Each bite delivered a burst of ocean freshness balanced by subtle herbs, proving that this market isn’t just a place to shop—it’s a culinary experience where quality meets affordability in every seafood delight.
