Places to eat- PCB...

I don't mind sharing the location of Hunt's, but Gene's has only 11 seats in the entire place. You are doing just fine at Hunt's. Gene's just has a slightly different character. I forget the name of the oyster bar in Apalach, but it is right on the river -- you cannot miss it.
 
We love Dusty'sWe enjoy Dusty's on Beach Front Rd. I know, I know...it can be noisy and packed and kinda funky, but that's OK when the oysters are that fine, the shuckers are world class, the food is terriufic, the jukebox roks, the clientele can vary just as the traffic does, so that's where I head when I'm close.

Boss Oyster, maybe?
 
If you love a good old bar, raw oysters, fried shrimp, ACDC/Metallica/Aerosmith blaring from a very loud and very bad stereo, cheap perfume, and really great servers, go to Dusty's on a Friday night. front beach road. terrific change of pace and wonderful seafood.
 
Someone had mentioned Dusty's earlier, but we had already done the oyster thing 3 times in 5 nights (twice at Hunt's and once at Billy's), so I couldn't get anyone to go there with me. We did pass it on the way out of town though, and will certainly check it out when we return late this summer...
 
Before the days of refrigeration and ice machines, eating oysters during the R-months was good advice. The R months don't matter any more.

Glad you liked Hunt's. They are tied with Gene's Oyster Bar, as my favorite oyster bar, this side of Apalachicola.

I ate my first oysters in a dive called Lucy's in Panama City. We stopped there almost every Friday night on the way to Wewa from Pensacola during hunting season. A buck a dozen on the half shell. Those were the days.
 
I was always told to only eat raw in month's with a 'R' in them. But nowadays so many oyster farms I guess they are good year around.

While the old, month with an R in it, is no longer true. I would never eat raw oysters about a week after any major rainfall (tropical in nature) due to the crude that gets flushed into the bay. Remember oysters are the filter of the sea. ;-)
