    Our mission is to make oysters more approachable so if you are feeling adventerous, come in, purchase a dozen and ask us about our "how-to" video. We will slip you the login and password! We sell everything you need here to be successful (oysters, knives, towels, sauce). Also, ask us about our Airbnb Experience...
  • Do you always have caviar?
    YES! We are proud to have our own caviar line with 9 different styles: Yuzu Tobikko, Wasabi Tobikko, Salmon Roe, Paddlefish, White Sturgeon, Italian Siberian, Prime Osetra, Kaluga and Royal Belgian Platinum. Each tin has its own distinctive label and if you look closely on the tin, you can find our suggestions for what we think goes great with each caviar. For example, our Yuzu Tobikko is awesome on a lobster roll and the Prime Osetra is amazing on a crab rangoon. Have fun with it! And please, ask us for suggestions when you visit us. You can find our caviar in the shop and also in our web shop.
