Food Facts: British Columbian Oysters

Oliver Philpott, Owner & Executive Chef

Jeff Spencer, Chef De Cuisine

Since Aphrodite rushed up in the waves on an oyster shell and promptly gave birth to Eros, the word ‘aphrodisiac’ has been associated with love, and oysters for their aphrodisiac effects.

Sweet, succulent young oysters from the Pacific Northwest will be served at our Valentines Day dinner.

With a medium briny yet sweet flavor, Chef Creek oysters are a perfect size for half shell eating.
