      Can it be spiced in any way?

      Harold & Belle's ~ Creole ~ Mid-City L.A-ish ~ Only 3 different Scotch-es behind the bar though:

            The Galley menu doesn't show fried oysters...Is this an occasional special?

              I had the fried oysters at La Cachette Bistro last week and they are unbelievably good. So good that we had a second order of it. La Cachette Bistro has a promotion of 30% off your entire meal Friday and Saturday nights after 9:00 p.m. I could definitely see coming in after 9:00 p.m. and just ordering plate after plate of fried oysters. It was that good.

              P.S. They also offer $1 corkage on Sunday nights.

                yes,
                that 30% off deal has become VERY addicting.. . . . .
                AND all the fish they serve is amazingly fresh.
                their bouillabaisse is buttery goodness.
                since the kitchen closes at 10, it behooves you to get there shortly after 9.

              Musso & Frank offers "Oysters stewed or fried" for $18, and I rather think they have scotch ;-) I'd assume Pacific Dining Car would have a similar offering. As for someplace a tad cheaper, I don't know, but now you've given me a craving I didn't have five minutes ago. Thanks EVER so much …

              On further search, PDC does not have oysters on their menu. They'd be too expensive anyway, right?
