Oysters and cocktails in the burg..

I’ve only had oysters a few times in my life and was never blown away until this visit to Maison Premiere in Williamsburg – Brooklyn. We arrived there on a Friday late afternoon around 4pm (when it opens) to find a line outside the door to our surprise. Luckily we were able to get a table within a few minutes but I noticed that all the tables were full soon after so if we had come any later, we would have been waiting for some time. Our table had a menu in a check-list form with a pencil to order different varieties of oysters from along with a separate menu for cocktails – which included juleps and absinthe based cocktails. Below you can see the beautiful presentation of the oysters which were quite delicious and fresh. I’ll definitely be back!
