But dear, you\u2019re coming to an island, where beaches and seafood are all over the way, so there is no need to treat yourself with frozen food. Also, avoiding being overcharged is necessary, especially when you walk into a shop with no price list.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8010\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8010\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8010\" src=\"https:\/\/luxtraveldmc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/dinh-cau-night-market2.jpg\" alt=\"A Comprehensive Guide To Dinh Cau Night Market Phu Quoc\" width=\"750\" height=\"517\" srcset=\"https:\/\/luxtraveldmc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/dinh-cau-night-market2.jpg 750w, https:\/\/luxtraveldmc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/dinh-cau-night-market2-300x207.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8010\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: Flickr @kateewing1<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Here are some tips and tricks to wrap yourself with:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>For fish, pick the ones with bright eyes, vibrant flesh, metallic skin, and no pungent odor.<\/li>\n<li>For live creatures like crabs, shrimps, or lobsters, look for the ones that swimming happily on the tank.
