Oysters


Another snack we've adopted since we moved to Paris is oysters.  Many restaurants, including one of our favorite locals, have an oyster bar open to the street so that one doesn't even need to go inside to fortify oneself.  Last night we continued our research on the topic with a friend who was in town on a business trip.  He was staying in the chi-chi half of the 16th, near Place Victor Hugo, so we walked up to his hotel, and went from there down the block to Le Stella, a bistro we went to a year ago with friends A&M.

We ordered half a dozen each of the Spéciales-Boudeuses, the Belon, and the Fine de Claire.  While we've always liked the latter before, the other two were new to us, and knocked the Fine de Claire off their pedestal.  I think the Spéciales were the unanimous favorites.
