They fill you up quickly which is why you have to eat them fast! 2 dozen usually does the trick.

They're like sushi. Just try one, see if you like it. If not, pass them down this way

Ok, didn't know if you could get them under $10 or not. We sat in a Pappadeaux's in Houston one weekend, at their happy hour special, and had a dozen for $6. Think we went through 5 of them. Didn't get sick the next day either. LOL.

This weekend Jamesman. Little tabasco or lemon and down the hatch.

Mike, no work involved. You don't even have to chew.

So true. There is an oyster bar opening up next to Kumo over by us. They have another location downtown as well.

Union Oyster House in Boston is awesome. You have to go if your in the area.

I don't even put salt on them.

Sacrilege!
