Kumamoto Oysters

[bbally]

Was in Denver Saturday, stopped at the Whole Foods Store and dropped some bucks on provisions.

They had the Kumamoto Oysters on hand... had to have some!

Also picked up some wild caught Atlantic Oysters as well as some Pacifics.

Happened to be there when the fish truck showed up.... Chilean Sea Bass. Yum had them wrap up a nice fillet of the Seabass.......

In the meat section they had Speck... real speck, I usually have to make it myself. Good product so I grabbed a pound of it.

Could not contol myself while icing my oysters and ended up eating half a dozen of each on the half shell...... They were excellent!

Doing some grilling today.. pictures later!

Yes, but sustainably farmed here in the USA.

Sounds excellent, Bob. We'll be waiting patiently for the pictures.

The perfect one bite oyster. A dozen or 2 on the half shell, a cold Widmer, some lemon and horseradish.......
