The slight bitter tone of the endive take it up another level whilethat hit of fresh lemon brings such vibrancy you’ll have that tangy aftertastein your mouth while you tuck into the next oyster.
Magnificent.

It should be mentioned that oysters are produced in an environmentally friendly way. Finally, there's no need to worry about calories whilst eating oysters!

These are all the reasons why I became an oyster-lover. Oysters and oyster-tourism is exactly what this blog is about.
