And I put some soy sauce in it (very Japaneseyyyy)
Thanks for the recipe, again.

This is what I had in a restaurant on NYE.. but not even close to the fresh flavor combo that you have here.. This recipe, some crusty bread... I just doesn't get any better..... I will be making this time and time again..... ;-)

This is my favorite way to serve mussels, though on occasion I'll toss in a bit of Old Bay. I think that they're really best when treated simply.
