Win Tickets to The Morrison’s Oyster Shucking Class

The oyster offers a unique taste and texture, and until you embrace this tender and aphrodisiacal snot of the sea, you're just not the refined cosmopolitan you might claim to be. Who could forget the first time they took a fortifying gulp of champers and then allowed the silky grey flesh to slide down their throat, fresh and lemony? And what about those ladies and gentlemen who know how to shuck oysters without severing their own fingers? This is the very height of urban sophistication.

You now have the opportunity to join their shining ranks with some help from The Morrison's Vio Pramano at August's Shuck Me Silly: Oyster Shucking Classes. As part of the Oyster Festival 2013, Pramano will show you how to extract the suckers without drawing blood. The best part? You can eat the spoils of your labour directly after, enjoying a dozen oysters paired up with their ideal liquid partners: cocktail, champagne, oyster stout and wine.

Tuesday 6 and 20 August, 6.30-8.30pm. 12 oysters and matched drinks for $69 per person.
