We spotted this on a late morning stroll through the city and couldn't resist getting stuck into some fresh seafood. We had a plate of King Prawns and one of Oysters, which we washed down we a glass each of chilled wine. The Prawns were deliciously fresh and peeled easily to reveal plenty of succulent meat. They came with a Marie-rose sauce to dip, which was the perfect accompaniment. The oyster came au natural and we just added a squeeze of lemon. What an unexpected treat and one that I would highly reccomend.
