As an East Baltimore lifer, Nestor Aparicio loves going to his favorite places owned by old friends. On Day 18, once he heard the Highlandtown aioli was elevated he knew he’d be seeking out his old Berkshire chum Brian Eder for some fried oysters at The Chasseur, high on the Highland Street hill at Foster.
Now with two great locations, it only made perfect sense to return to The Local on The Avenue at White Marsh to visit with my old soccer pal Lou Petrucci and explore the chargrilled oysters with truffle butter on a perfect 17th day of the Maryland Oyster Tour.
We’ve done the Maryland Crab Cake Tour from Nick’s Grandstand Grill atop the grandstand of the Timonium race course and the attached OTB a few times. So, naturally we’re back looking for Tommy! A great spot to get six on the half!
Our intrepid oyster eater and discoverer Nestor Aparicio enjoyed spending another beautiful day in Baltimore by hitting the Fells Point Square for Oyster Fest and some New Orleans grilled spirit on Day 10 of the Maryland Oyster Tour presented by Curio Wellness and Liberty Pure Solutions to celebrate 26 years of local awesomeness at WNST. This buttery concoction from our friends at Kooper’s was delicious!
In an effort to continue to find the most creative ways oysters are being done all over Maryland, Nestor rolled to the The Gourmet at Kenilworth – a real oyster headquarters – and found the unique Chincoteague roll with oyster and crab. Winner, winner, sushi dinner in Towson!
This is the reason we did an oyster tour. This crab claw ceviche oyster is one of the greatest and most unique concoctions we’ve ever eaten. On Day 7 of The Maryland Oyster Tour, presented by Curio Wellness and Liberty Pure Solutions to educate folks about the Oyster Recovery Project, Nestor shares a Hall of Fame oyster at Federal House in downtown Annapolis.
