    Thanks for your comment Pops. I don't think we can get them from New Zealand here in Adelaide, but we do get some really nice fresh Sydney rock oysters and a couple of others fresh just out of Adelaide at times. (They may be farmed I think, but taste pretty good)

    We are definitely oyster lovers in this household. I am looking forward to trying these - they sound delicious. What is your recipe for the Lemon Mustard Mayo? It didn't seem to come across on the recipe, but I would love to know what you add to it! Thank you!
