The Best Oysters Are Found in New Orleans - How We Eat 

I lived next door to Thomas for almost two years and he truly is a great man. We drank on the stoop and had some really good times!

The best raw oysters I've ever had were in New Orleans. Just $13 for a dozen of absolutely massive oysters that were just pulled from the water hours before. Truly an incredible meal.

Thomas had me dying 🤣. ...never can be duplicated. He was talking that talk. lol

What a great flick. Real people talking about real food. Possibly one of my favs, New Orleans, the soul of the planet, love you guys.🇨🇦

That fella with the oysters is someone I would enjoy his company

"You put lead in your pencil, but if you don't have no stationary to write on or no one to write to. You're in trouble for eating all them oysters" 2:19-2:28

Uptown seems like fun guy

Thomas needs his own show 😂

I travelled and tried many oysters,when i was back in my country,my friend whom owns a bar imported new zealand bluff oysters,the day i had that bad baby with drops of tabasco,i will never forget the experience! It retained the water inside it where it originated from too,for me i would say,that's the best in the world,second is any coastal japanese town oysters 👍 for any seafood lovers,try them when you drink👍

I can NOT with UPtown T!!! He's the type to turn the worst day around for someone just by being himself. We need so much more.

lol that black dude is awesome

YOU CAN CALL ME THOMAAAS

Uptown T is fucking hilarious, I watched his scene three times lol.

haha Thomas is awesome!

How are you not going to mention charbroiled oysters when talking about New Orleans oysters?

i was driving in Louisiana one day and i saw a little shack that had a stack of empty shells out back that was about 10 feet tall...they even pave the roads with clam shells. aint no gravel in the delta.

It looks delicious 😋

Those Oysters looked delicious!

Great video!

people don't understand my obsession with oysters 😭

Ah great, I found another channel I'm gonna have to binge watch on. Damnit RU-vid.

Good content!

Thomas in this video so fuxxxx cool. Thanks Thomas. Great Oyster chef Thomas, we all believe in you :-)

what type of device did the narrator use to record. it sounds awful

My city! Y'all, Nola has THE BEST FOOD PERIOD.

I need to go here!!!!! ugh!!! although...if any of you have tasted Bluff Oysters in NZ.... those things... are RIDICULOUS!!! my opinion, the best in the world! along with their mussels. But, ill be absolutely willing to try here! hehehe

I need to spend time on a stool in front of Uptown T.

I've only had oysters once or twice because they aren't the most economical item on the menu. I love seafood though (but hate traveling) but I'd love to give something like this a try.

cold water oysters are always superior I've eaten gulf oysters while in NO and they're good but not best

can't beat a Bluff oyster in New Zealand

The best oysters are found in New Zealand. They are Bluff Oysters. There are other countries besides the USA...

Aww yiss. I really want oysters now.

Typically, the colder the water the more flavourful the shellfish. So while the oysters in the southern US are tasty they don't match up to those found in cold ocean water. Try a Malpeque or a Raspberry Point oyster from Prince Edward Island, Canada, and you will see what I mean.

Thomas you rock it

Bluff oysters and pacific oysters around NZ are hard to beat. Try oysters the size of your Entire hand, super creamy, would love to try these

Thomas is awesome lol I would want to meet him if I went to Louisiana!

Yep ! Yep..just a little taste of heaven😃😃and i live in calgary canada....

AWESOME

I feel like oysters are one of those things that is enjoyable to eat because you tell yourself it’s good and everyone eats it. If everyone ate tarantulas and told you it’s good you’d probably be fine eating tarantulas as well. In reality it really just looks like a soft slimy snotball stuck in a rock.

Uptown T is a great guy. Go see him at Pascal's Manale

I love Louisiana food! Best in the country!

Mmmm I am eating steamed oysters with a home made sour pepper sauce later since this vid made me hungry lol

Damn I wanna go to the place Thomas works at and get an oyster shucked by him!

Salvatore Sunseri looks like a meme. No offence.

They're to die for. Literally.

Gulf oysters Are the best! I've had oysters from the Atlantic and Pacific. New Orleans has the best, freshest, saltiest oysters.

1:42 Lol that guy is hilarious

Yummy 😋

Yo I was gonna say nice work on getting the cultural ambassador from the local government there onto your show, that's pretty neat and legit. In actuality I paused before pressing Comment and googled her name and found out she isn't the cultural ambassador, Irvin Mayfield is. I get that it might seem cool to throw that tag under her name but come on, that's not that different from putting 'Mayor' under her name - it's misleading, especially to people out of area. I also found that she entertains the myths of ghosts and a myriad of other lunacy, so please can you refrain from whacking legitimate labels on random people in the future? Also no politics videos please, you guys aren't buzzfeed or some other bottom-tier clickbait.

That shucker reminds me of buba from forrest gump

The one local bar near me called Cole's public House in Amherst Ohio (sorry had to give them a shout out) always had a standard menu but then they changed up a lot of the other things like they always had oysters Rockefeller but the oysters on the half shell they would serve them plain with cocktail sauce or just lemon whatever you prefer and they would always come up with something creative like the one time it was a soy Ginger with cucumber and then one other time I'm pretty sure that they put a little bit of rice wine vinegar they minced up pickled ginger and I couldn't place the name of the third ingredient but I know they put something else in there and they were out of this world

Yum

Louisiana/New Orleans oysters are super thick and creamy never had an oyster as fat and consistent like them

"Cha cha cha, cuz we're not finished" 😂😂😂

I’m a bit worried as I’ve started eating oysters and I absolutely love them. But I’ve heard a lot of bad about eating them raw and getting vibriosis. What are the chances and what are the signs to look out for, are there any signs you have a bad oyster? I want to keep eating them so any help would be great

Voila, or shall I say cha cha cha because we are not finished yet...

Gahd's Pahnd. Love oysters.

and of course it must be somewhere in the US.

Whoa look at that MONSTER size oyster 4:50

Man o man would I like some of these shelled beauties.....

I haven't even tried eating an oister, wtf am i doing here...

I tried an oyster once when I was like 12 it didn't go well. I vowed to never eat another oyster in my life will I never break that promise, but it's still love watching others eat them

Char broiled are the best✔

I’m from New England and the oysters here are delicious. I lived in Florida for 7 years and I found the oyster shells were heavily encrusted with barnacles, and even smaller oysters stuck to them. You couldn’t get a shucked oyster to lay on a platter without it tipping over. The taste was fine but not the same clean briny flavor of a cold water oyster. To each his own I guess.

Made with BP oil

Holy crabs...those oysters!

Thomas a G!!

Its coming home

No way! Best, fattest, juiciest, flavoursome oysters are most definitely from beautiful New Zealand!!!!!! World famous Bluff oysters all day whoop whoop

I love oysters I'm now craving them.

Hokkaido called and said "whuuuut?"

Lol you in troubleeeeee

A lot of gulf oysters are not farmed. They thrive in the warm waters of the gulf.

COOL

Who else is here because of the demarcus cousins trade???

Are the oysters still covered with BP oil? The shrimp are still sick with infections all over them

Lived in new Orleans my whole life and never tried an oyster as of 2018

thomas is hilarious

My gosh, Is that lady off her chops at the start/beginning??? LOL WUT

uptown t!

New zealand bluff oysters. Best in the world

I love oysters but clams are alot more delicious

the 1st 3 blue oyster cult albums are the best.

Still like my Pocahontas and Rappahannock oysters from VA

Great job eater at least your comments arnt bashing you like vice

hell of a southern accents

Anyone know where Sisko's Restaurant is?

You haven't eaten an oyster until you've had a Chincoteague oyster

The best oysters are found in Bluff New Zealand

Your in troubleeeeeeeeee

Louisiana oyster? I think they mean Gulf Coast oysters it's pretty much the same from Galveston bay to Florida

After the BP oil spill, only an idiot would eat ANYTHING out of the gulf.

2021

I’m from New Orleans and the oysters r ok but the seafood and beignets r the best u can eat down their nothing is better and then the parties they have every night we’re u can drink and do what ever is fun

What's up with the audio work, Mate. I mean, isn't there anybody checking the final result?

Uptown T would literally make me walk out on a tab...and ive never imagined doing so.

I grew up in New Orleans and I gotta say I prefer Pac Northwest oysters.

The Chesapeake Bay has the best oysters!

tobasco, oysters and beer.

Capt wilbert must have got a lot of tail look at them 3:28
