Oysters

Appears in

  • About
Surprisingly perhaps, for a country where oysters were once sold on the streets as cheap food, we are no longer a nation of serious oyster eaters. Of course, we do still eat oysters, but to nowhere near the same extent as the French. There are many oyster fisheries around our coastlines, including a fair number on historic oyster farming sites, but you will rarely find an oyster shack or nearby restaurant serving them as you would across the channel.
Oysters may no longer be cheap, but they deserve to be celebrated - as a simple bar snack or part of a main meal. The wright Brothers’ Oyster & Porter House in London’s Borough market is a great place to eat and socialise and I’m hoping that more oyster bar will start to appear around the country for people to enjoy the fruit of the sea with friends.
