We fought the traffic up Highway 1 this past Saturday to grill some oysters at the Tomales Bay Oyster Company. Armed with our cooler, breads, cheeses, and various other condiments, we set to work on shucking 50 oysters in the cool breeze. It was my first time shucking, so, after a bit of practice, I got the hang of it.
The Oyster Company was pretty accomadating. They provide a BBQ area and picnic table, oysters at less than $1 per piece, and various condiments for sale. Being that it’s Memorial Day weekend, the place was packed with people. Oysters sandwiches with brie and roasted red peppers are delicious.
Afterwards, it was off to a secluded beach in Tomales bay for a relaxing afternoon of skipping rocks.
