A Visit to the Athens Fish Market – Part 2 — Επισκεψη στην Βαρβακειο Αγορα – Ιχθυαγορα – Μερος 2ο

This is the second part of the post on the Athens Fish Market.
As in the first part, all items are given with their Greek names. English names are given only when I am almost certain about them.
However, this does not mean I have not made an error somewhere.
