Savoring the Sea: The NC Oyster Trail
A statewide effort connects Raleigh to the coast — and an ocean delicacy — through partnerships with restaurants, supplies and oyster farms. “Few ingredients taste so much like the place they come from,” says chef Sean Fowler of Mandolin in Raleigh. “But oysters truly offer the essence of their environment — their taste, texture and aroma directly connect you to the sea.” “I love everything about them,” agrees chef Sunny Gerhart of St. Roch Fine Oysters + Bar. “Served raw on the half shell with a touch of mignonette, fried until perfectly crispy with a touch of hot sauce aioli and a squeeze of lemon, gently poached in a stew. Oysters are so versatile, you can really do so much.”
