Discover Shucks pop up Oyster Bar in DTLA

Shucks Oyster Bar LA

It seems that oysters are a popular item on LA menus. The Dude of Food, a local LAist foodie, found himself working in downtown Los Angeles. Next door to us was a bar that had a pop up oyster bar out called Shucks Oyster Bar.  The oyster bar tender was a nice guy and the Dude of Food tried a couple of each kind of oyster to check them out. The oysters were fresh and reminded the Dude of Food of a time when he was eating oysters in a back alley behind a fish shop in Fontainebleau, France or another time in San Sebastian/Donostia, Spain and how well beers go with oysters.

If you’re on Spring St. near 7th in DTLA look for Shucks Oyster Bar pop up.

Oysters in Fontainebleau

After walking around the Chateau Fontainebleau I realized I had worked up a hunger. As I walked down an alley I saw this cool old fish stand. I bought 2 oysters. 1 was an expensive one and the other was a not quite as expensive one. They were both enjoyable as I sat in France and ate a couple oysters and sipped a beer.

Oysters provide our bodies with protein, iron, omega 3 acids, calcium, zinc, vitamin C and contain no cholesterol.

They guy at the counter shucked them for me so all I had to do was open, squeeze lemons and eat.
