Since oysters are on the mind, I compiled this list of restaurants where you can get $1 oysters. I’ve been to four of the seven and can vouch that their oysters are damn fresh. I got the location info quickly from Yelp. Gotta quote reference your sources! And thanks to Yelp, I found a few other places to round out my list.
Interesting fact: oysters are approximately 10 calories each. So if you eat half a dozen oysters, that’s less calories than a hard-boiled egg. It’s all protein. Healthy alert!
