June 18 Photo - Oyster Menu

Menu at the Oyster Farm

Leucate - just over the border in the Aude department, the Oyster farm is a MUST for those who like shucking up! Reminiscent of the shanty -like river markets in Asia, the oyster huts where they harvest the beauties, back on to basic restaurants serving Oysters and Mussels, the freshest you have ever tasted. This is not a place to go to if you are

a) a white linen table, sparkling glasses and stylish decor type or
b) you are not an oyster lover.
The restaurants are the basic, plastic tables and chairs variety - there is a string of them all offering unbelievable value :
12 oysters, a quart of wine and bread for 8 euros for example. You can also buy take away sea food platters.
Situated between Leucate port and Leucate Village, about a half an hour drive from Perpignan,  follow the signs for Le centre ostréicole ( same turn off as the naturist resort!!!)

Bon Appetit!
