Jessica Dukes (that's me!) Oysters Feature on Eatocracy

What's the difference between East coast and West coast oysters? It started as a debate in an editorial meeting at StarChefs.com. The end result was that this feature was listed alongside articles from Michael Ruhlman, the New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, and Slate on CNN's "Eatocracy".

My flag bears a pearl, but if oysters freak you out, I hope that you'll catch a glimpse here of their power to fascinate. They're a superfood, super sustainable, and they're about as diverse as cheese or wine, and just as fun to explore.

If you're already besotted by bivalves, and eagerly jump on Happy Hour on-the-half-shell bargains, then hopefully this guide will help amp the tasting experience on your next trip to Maison Premiere in Williamsburg, Greenpoint's Lobster Joint, or the John Dory, or GCOB if you're Manhattan-bound.

At any rate, you'll be fully prepared to start a debate at the bar.

Safe shucking!
