Tathra Oysters, grown in the picturesque Nelson Lagoon in Australia’s Mimosa Rocks National Park, are champions — and it’s not just us saying that. The judges have spoken too.

I love the presentation of these oysters we enjoyed at Ocean Club, a beachside venue in the beautiful Regent Phu Quoc hotel in Vietnam.

Oysters, freshly shucked and gently warmed on a gas barbecue, are among highlights at the Jonker Walk Night Market in Melaka.

The prized Akoya oyster reaches Australian tables courtesy of Broken Bay Pearl Farm on the NSW Central Coast.

In Hong Kong, traditional sun-drying is said to intensify the oysters’ natural flavour and create a velvety texture.

If you love oysters, there’s only one place you ought to be from September 26-28 and that’s the Galway International Oyster and Seafood Festival in Ireland.
