Oysters are divisive. Some people love them. Others run screaming from the table when presented with them. The folks in that last category might want to avoid Barnacle Buds on Aug. 5, as the riverfront eatery throws its inaugural Oyster Fest. The event, which gets the featured spot at the top of this episode, will take place from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. — more than enough time to get your fill of the mollusk menu:

An oyster sampler plate that runs a dozen deep (three each of three raw varieties, plus three grilled)
An oyster po’boy slider
One drink

That’s what you’ll get in exchange for $55, and there are also opportunities to add a supplemental half-dozen oysters to your platter. On top of that, Barnacle Bud and his crew will serve up various oyster shots and specialty drinks to compliment the offerings. For more details on this perfect way to celebrate National Oyster Day, head over to the event page. Or maybe wait to do that until you check out what else we discuss on this episode:

DanDan will host a very special dim sum brunch this Sunday with James Beard semifinalist chef Erasmo Casiano.
West Allis is losing a mainstay as Chilango Express shuts down after service on Sunday.
One of our hosts braved the very crowded Pan-Asia Supermarket to deliver a report on its first day in business.
