The oysters of Billy Winters

As I blogged yesterday, we are back from a holiday in Dorset. I promised I would share some pictures. I'm afraid a lot of the ones you will see are of food: this trip was for me a gastronomical experience. So anyway, we went to Billy Winters and, as they had oysters, I had some as a starter. I know they are out of season, but I hadn't eaten any since, well, years, so I decided to correct this, especially since they pride themselves to have their own oyster farm. I just could not pass on this opportunity. They are served with lemon and their own house Shallot vinaigrette (a first for me). It grossed out both my wife and Wolfie, but even the smell of it made me feel blissful. There is something so... marine, about oysters, which I always loved. And they were not even in season.
