Have you heard of The Sailors before?
This is the second time that X and I were here. We knew about this place because one of X's friend told him that you can get $1 oysters here on Monday nights.
We thought it was too good to be true but we were impressed the first time round. The $1 oysters were actually not bad! That being a year ago haha. And this time round, we brought along 3 other friends to see if this awesome promotion was still on. We've already had our dinner and we were at Robertson Quay in search of desserts when we remembered about the $1 oysters!
Located at Robertson Quay. The Sailors is within walking distance from Bella Pizza. Parking is readily available in the underground carparks.
$1 oysters but still pretty quiet..
And we know why it was so quiet.
So much for FRESH oysters. The oysters didn't taste fresh and they had quite a strong "stench" (the weird taste) After finishing about 3 oysters each, everyone was complaining about the aftertaste and queasiness in their stomachs.
You may say that it's $1 and we shouldn't expect too much. Well, we'd certainly pay more to get better oysters. Everyone knows that oysters that aren't fresh will probably give you the runs. We weren't here to grab a cheap deal and end up feeling sick.
To purchase these oysters at $1 each, you'll have to order an item from their menu. It can be either food or beverage. The previous time we were here, I ordered seafood marinara and the portion was insanely huge but it tasted just alright.
The best part of this visit was probably the friendly manager who chatted with us.
If you're a fan of oysters and are interested to have an oyster night, you can head down to The Sailors on Mondays. Maybe their oysters will be fresher then.
By the way, speaking of oysters.
If you're heading to Lawry's, you've to try their oysters. TOO GOOD.
