Start your Engines, Lovers…

There’s SO MUCH LOVE at the Oyster House, we’re going to be serving our V-Day special Valentine's Day Menu 2014menu the day before and after as well.  Menu to the left:

Here’s some things to thinks about:

Consider the oyster itself – salty. Slick. When you eat it, you use your fingers. There’s no cutlery to intercede – the contact is intimate, between shell and skin.

You bring the oyster to your lips, and inhale the aroma.  It is of the earth, of the ocean.  As you tilt your head back it slides over your lips and across your tongue, bringing with it a blast of sea water and kelp.  You swallow.  Savour the experience.  Eyes open a little wider.  Wow.

If you’re eating oysters at home (or if you’re sitting at the bar and you don’t give a s#!t), if you’re sitting with someone sexy, it can be fun to eat an oyster this way: hold the shell of the oyster between your teeth, with the hinge facing in.  Your sexy friend moves in close and sucks the oyster out of the shell.  Like a blowback, but maybe we should call it the Salty Kiss?

There are lots of other ways to approach an oyster, of course, but for Valentine’s Day, if you eat it right, you might just get asked out on another date…

(And of course, wear a condom).

Happy Valentine’s Day,

A new year…

Well, we survived another busy December, we survived an ice storm, frigid temperatures, and we’re all still here. Plumbing still working.  It’s 2014. A New Year.

We at the House have some big things coming up in the next 12 months – starting with new floors over the next 10 days, and growing from there.  We’ll keep other details under our hats for now, until the Official Announcements are ready… Moo.

In the short term, we’ve got confirmation the we WILL see the Golden Alaskan King Crab arriving at the end of February (huzzah!) so get your mining hats on, and join the Boys (and Girls) of PDAC for the feed in early March.  As always, we will be reserving Kings for your group to share – expect updates along the usual channels, and if you want to be added to our mailing list, send a message to foh@rodneysoysterhouse.com

Stay warm, and Happy New Year.
