Oysters served Thai style

Oyster feast

This was a nice, large plate of oysters served on the beach of Koh Chang. The local oysters are almost always pre-extracted and rarely served in the shell. That’s good, I suppose, since then they can fit much more meat on the plate! next to the oysters is the plate of accompinments: sliced fresh garlic, fresh chilies, fried shallots, lime, a bitter green vegetable, and some chili sauce. Throw a few of these in with each bite of oysters and you’ll be packing quite a wallop! You can read more about Thai oysters at another post of mine.
