Whats My Line?
oysters so I sat at the oyster bar where the guys shuck the oysters right in front of you. As I was approaching the end of my dozen oysters, the guy who was doing the shucking for me, Curtis, engaged me in a conversation that went something like this:
Curtis: You enjoying those oysters?
Bob: Absolutely, they’re great!
Curtis: Do you like grilled oysters or Oysters Rockefeller?
Bob: Sure do.
Curtis: See those oysters on that tray? (He pointed to a tray that was piled high with the largest, fullest oysters in the place).
Bob: Can’t miss them.
Curtis: Well, we put those oysters aside for our people (referring to the people who are sitting at the oyster bar). The people at the tables can’t get those. Those oysters are the absolute finest for grilling and
