Scoot down to Fort Point for an oyster faceoff at the freshly opened Row 34. On Friday, December 6th the brand-spanking-new restaurant, brought to you by the pros at Island Creek Oyster Bar, Lineage, Eastern Standard and The Hawthorne, welcomes shuckers and their wares from local fave Island Creek Oysters (out of Duxbury) and not-so-local fave Hog Island Oyster Co. (from California). Six of the briny little treats will set you back $6, as will a nice cold beer to sip alongside them. If the Friday night shuck-fest doesn’t settle the debate for you, consider exploring the issue further with the Best Coast Holiday Package. The perfect gift for the shellfish fan on your list (even if that’s you) the package includes two dozen oysters from each farm and perfectly-timed shipping for Christmas or New Year’s Eve eating. Place an order online and consider Friday a preview of the good things to come.
