A delicacy only available certain month of the year and has a crazy amount of bones - long, short, big, minuscule and some even three pronged! Once steamed, you gotta carefully lift the scales to reveal a black strip of flesh and then everyone on the table falls silence and concentrates on not choking themselves with bones 😖 Only local ones are steamed and the cheaper grades hailing from India or other places of the world are bbq/deep fried.
Like ever. Light, breaks effortlessly, nary a hint of oil, plump and umami oysters. Ok, that's all.
