What else can I get ...

Ohhh what's old mate here doing ?

Scallops ! throws them on the grill with cheese , then heats them from underneath with a blow torch :eeek: then tops with wostershire and roe

Might grab 3x if those



Anything else , hmm some shrimp on the barbie ? Why not !

Goes and finds a nice quiet spot by the water

Now that's a fresh oyster :)

Nice sheen , creamy white with nice dark skirt around the edges



A squeeze of lemon and some cracked pepper , and down the hatch
