This chilli oil is the latest TikTok sensation, and for good reason. Handmade in small batches in Sydney's south west, it's hot, spicy, crispy, toasty and packed with umami flavours. It's perfect for seafood, because it’s intensely flavourful yet not off-the-charts spicy, balancing the symphony of flavours with the heat.
Australian Tinned Fish
Speaking of TikTok trends... Sardines on toast are the latest ‘it’ snack, anchovies are on every restaurant menu, and ‘seacuterie’ boards stacked with tins are all the rage on TikTok.
We’ve got no problem with tinned seafood... We love anything that gets Aussies eating more fish! Our top tip, though, is to buy Australian. Not only does that mean you can be sure the fish was sourced sustainably, but it also means you’re supporting local industry. Bonus!

Fancy Condiments
Our on-site artisanal deli isn’t just the best place at Sydney Fish Market to get a coffee... It’s also home to a huge range of delicious dressings, jams, honeys, oils, vinegars, sauces, and sweet treats.

Why not bundle a book with one of our bespoke tea towels? We’ve got a bunch of hand-illustrated designs available to suit any kitchen colour scheme.
In The Roundhouse
The only thing better than sitting down to a plate of fresh Australian seafood, is that plate being themed accordingly. We are obsessed with , illustrated by Daimon Downey, and we reckon any other seafood lover will be too.
