I'm currently typing this review to Arcade Fire in the background as they just won the Grammy for Album of the Year... vas-y Montreal! Give it up Lauren! My conoisseur of all things oyster, we met at The Auld Spot for a few pints to rehash romance gone awry ironically over one of the world's greatest aphrodisiacs: oysters. Lauren picked the east coast Raspberry points as we soaked them in lemon and freshly grated horseradish with a dash of tabasco of course. The aftertaste is sweet and fresh and lent itself nicely to the contrast of our next order of heavily seasoned hand-cut fries. At $2.50 an oyster, for a dozen we ended up grazing gourmet a la neighbourhood gastro pub. Many other shmancy offerings include musself in white wine sauce and specials of sweet potato croquettes. Cheers to a great girls night as We're Ready To Start the week....
