Comment

How many people have a sea shell, like an oyster, to serve as a serving dish? Apparently in days gone by, this was not an unusual way to serve seafood delicacies. Next time I'm in a seafood restaurant, I'm going to order a plate of raw oysters with the proviso that I can take the shells home for use in serving my guests in proper style. I guess they are dishwasher safe.
