Crispy Oysters

The Crispy Oysters at Bobbie's Airway Grill in Dallas are a signature starter known for their delicate preparation and "zippy" flavor profile.

Preparation and Presentation

1. Method: Each oyster is individually battered in cornmeal and lightly fried to achieve a golden, delicate crust while maintaining a tender interior.
2. Plating: They are traditionally presented on the half shell.
3. Sauces: The dish is served over a dollop of garlic aioli and drizzled with a "Flower Street vinaigrette" - a bright, complex sauce containing champagne vinegar, capers, shallots, Calabrian chili, and mustard.

Menu Variations

1. Stand-alone Starter: Priced at approximately $24 (may vary slightly between lunch and dinner).
2. Salad Add-on: They can be added to Bobbie’s Caesar Salad (featuring little gem lettuce and Reggiano) for an additional charge, typically around $8.
3. "Secret Menu" Po'Boy: The restaurant occasionally offers a "secret menu" Crispy Oyster Po'Boy, which wraps the oysters in a house-made hoagie roll with lettuce, tomato, and pickles.
