Oysters (huîtres)
Years ago I bought some mussels in Montmartre, cooked a soup in our apartment and proceeded to become deathly ill. (REALLY MESSY, missed my scheduled visit to Le Louvre one day)
So it was with some trepidation that we ordered a platter of oysters to go with our Onion Soup on Christmas morning.
