We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again, Vancouver is blessed with some of the freshest oysters around, thanks in large part to the city’s close proximity to salt-laden waterways.
Oysters may be an acquired taste, but for those in Vancouver who simply can’t get enough of these salty, succulent, culinary pleasures there are a stack of restaurants across the city offering daily deals guaranteed to sate any oyster craving, for only a buck apiece. Now that’s a wallet friendly deal.
