The Wharf

Sea-salty and zesty, the Wharf’s classic Kilpatrick version will convert even the most ardent of mollusc-haters. A half dozen shells arrive on an oversized white plate, deftly poised on a bed of rock-salt. Surprise, surprise… the oysters are hot! Too often this recipe is pre-prepared then shoved in the fridge, but the Wharf makes them to order, gloriously sticky with crisp bacon and a little fork to prompt their exit from the shell. Superb.
