Where in Perth to enjoy freshly-shucked Albany Rock Oysters this summer
With the temperature rising and the sun shining, we’re gravitating towards the coast this summer – not just for ocean dips, but on our plates, too!
And there’s nothing that says “summer” like the arrival of Albany Rock Oyster season, which runs from November to April when they’re harvested at their peak – and pair pretty darn nicely with a glass of Western Australian wine twinkling in the sunshine.
Sustainably grown in the pristine waters of the Great Southern where the King and Kalgan Rivers join the icy waves of the Southern Ocean, the premium oyster’s unique flavour balances briny, oceanic flavours with grassy, watermelon and cucumber notes… Refreshing!
Keen to try a few for yourself? Here are seven venues around Perth serving freshly shucked Albany Rock Oysters this summer:
