Seafood海鲜

<strike>I </strike>I write this essay because I think this topic is hard for me. Not only does it involve the names of food, but also their cooking styles.

Here we usually go to eat seafood at a night food stall or in a buffet.
这儿，我们经常去夜排档或自助餐厅吃还海鲜。

Eating at a night food booth may cost you about 100-150rmb per person.
夜排档的人均消费大概在100-150元左右。
The food there is mostly cooked， like a tasty yellow croaker soup，fried shrimps on a stick，grilled squid and so on.
那儿的食物基本上都是烧熟的，如美味的黄鱼汤，油炸虾串和碳烤鱿鱼等等。

The cost of buffet would be a little more expensive. It's normally above 250rmb per person. However with pricey food,  they have good taste.
自助餐就比较贵了，一般人均消费在250元以上。当然还是物有所值的。
I like eating sashimi very much but I prefer clams, scallops and whelks tops（？） to crab and fish meat. Moreover，I think it looks ugly <strike>as</strike>  holding a crab claw to eat.
我很喜欢吃刺身。较之螃蟹和鱼肉，我更喜欢吃蚌、贝和螺。更重要的是，我觉得抓着螃蟹腿啃的吃相实在是太难看了。
