DETAILS
Fri, Nov 18
@ PORT OF CALL FOOD & BREW HALL
5:30pm - 8:30pm
EVENT OVERVIEW
Celebrate the Global History, Culture, Cuisine, Economy & Ecology of Oysters at THE BEST TIME OF THE YEAR at Port of Call Food & Brew Hall in Historic Downtown Charleston. This will be the finest raw bar / oyster experience ON EARTH ON THIS DAY, without question. And that is not JUST for the fact that the setting is amazing but also because the food & beverage offering is truly a culinary master stroke.
We created International Oyster Day as an alternative to National Oyster Day (Aug 5) which is far and away the worst time of the year to feature oysters due to several factors like the fact that two of the five most important oyster species are not even commercially available at this time.
