4th Annual Oyster Fest at Lily’s!

January 25, 2021 By Dayton Most Metro

From Tuesday, January 26-Sunday, February 7 (excluding Mondays when they are closed) from 5-9pm Lily’s  will be celebrating these delightful bites of pure ocean flavor! Guests can enjoy a massive selection of the oysters prepared in a myriad of ways at this Oregon District eatery.  What you’ll find on the Oyster Fest Menu:

RAW

Oysters on the half shell choose either Assorted East Coast (Washburn, Bluepoint; typically ‘meatier’ but individual sizes vary) or West Coast (Barron Point-typically deep-cupped and more petite) $2.50 each choose up to 1 sauce per 2 oysters: horseradish, cocktail sauce, or lemongrass mignonette. Saltines and hot sauce available at no cost upon request

Lily’s is also offering specials on champagnes and sparkling wines, which serve as the perfect beverage to pair with oyster.
CHAMPAGNE & SPARKLING WINE SPECIALS:

LAURENT-PERRIER Brut Champagne (187mL-enough for two to toast)
Crisp, fresh and elegant, Brut LP is a pale golden hue, with fine and persistent bubbles. $16
CANARD DUCHENE Authentic Brut Champagne
Freshness and intensity bring together nobility and nature. A blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, the wine is characterized by fresh fruit aromas jostling with brioche notes. The fruit aromas carry through to the palate and intermingle with pastry notes. $60
JCB NO. 21 FRENCH CREMANT
This is a top-of-the-range crémant that is crisp and textured while also fruity. It has richness, laced with acidity and citrus. Fresh and full of apple flavor, it’s an impressive wine that offers Champagne taste at a kinder price point. $38
POEMA CAVA BRUT ROSE
Fresh and elegant notes of strawberry, raspberry and rose petals. Balanced acidity keeps the wine light and fresh. $30
GIANCARLO PROSECCO
Easy drinking bubbles from Italy $28
