This is one of those dishes that came out of nowhere after my friend Dave visited the restaurant on a date and commented on how good the bone marrow and oysters were. Though he never actually ate the two things together, I thought it might not be a bad idea to try incorporating the oysters into the baked stuffed bone marrow — this great sharing dish is the result.
