Are oysters an acquired taste? (1 Viewer)

[SaintsInDome2006]

Oysters Mosca - maybe the best oyster dish I've had - with a little Spaghetti Bordelaise. A must stop in New Orleans- it's like walking into a time machine. Big props for the Frankie Valli on the jukebox.

That was Carlos Marcello's place. Yeah, that's some real family cooking there.

Char grilled oysters are my new go-to. So good.

i was never a fan of oysters until i had really fresh/good ones. Every year the New York Food and Wine Festival has an oyster event and its amazing. No need to put anything on the oysters and you get to taste the differences in flavors. Love them now, but i will only order them from a good seafood place.

Agree. Anyone that dislikes them just hasn't tried a good fresh oyster.

What do you think of Blue Pools and Hama Hamas. These are the two I'm getting for this weekend as part of a sampler.

Don't know if I've ever had a Blue Pool... I'll put it on the hit list.

Just load them up with hot sauce or horseradish.

This is what I had to do initially to get them down. Now I appreciate the flavor and just put a bit of heat on them.

Not a fan. Anything I have to drown in some sauce to get it down I'm not interested in.

Not a pasta fan?

If the pasta is disgusting without the sauce you need a new pasta.

So you like naked chicken wings?

Couldn't imagine eating Shrimp Cocktail without cocktail sauce.

Sure. Again if the wings have to be completely overpowered by sauce just to be edible I am not interested.

You guys seem to be confusing enhancement with cover up. You use the hot sauce to make the oysters even edible. Shrimp is edible and quite good on it's own for example. Don't need sauce to choke down shrimp until you convince yourself you like it.

Shrimp and oysters are very similar to me. The sauce really compliments them and sure I could eat both without the sauce but I wouldn't.

I pretty much don't like anything on my oysters. Sometimes I'll use a little cocktail sauce and horseradish, but for the most part I just eat them right out of the shell.

Char grilled oysters are my new go-to. So good.

Possibly the most delicious food on earth.

hamas are great and it's probably blue point.
