The aptly named Oyster
Express is just that: fresh oysters speedily served any time during
the day, 8am to 8pm.
The brainchild of a former Rodneys champion shucker, this little
Chinatown spot is a true gem. Clad in floor-to-ceiling plywood, with two
round windows, its the next best thing to dining on an actual wooden
boat. Daily catches count as many as a dozen different oysters, from
local varieties such as Kusshi, Royal Miyagi, and Kumamoto, to
Washingtons Pacific Virginica and PEIs Malpeque, all ranging between
$1.50-$3.50 a pop. Oysters in the morning? Breakfast of champions. Anya
