Although not a dedicated seafood restaurant, several of the stalls at the ground-floor food court in Chaisaeng Department Store sell delicious fish and seafood meals. Prices are cheap; but do be sure to pre-load money onto a payment card at the cashier kiosk before ordering your meal(s) as most sellers cannot accept cash. Two stalls in particular stand out for their seafood options; one specialises in a mean oyster omelette and the other sells spicy papaya salad, complete with prawn, crab, or other ingredients of your choosing.
