Abstract

The bay of Mali Ston is well known by its oysters. This delicacy is best in May and on St.Joseph's Day on 19/March the traditional oyster festival is taking place. Oysters are fullest and most delicious in March, when St Joseph s Day is celebrated. Gastro expert’s claim that oysters are best served freshly opened with some lemon juice. You will have the opportunity to taste the freshly opened oysters smelling of the sea around St.Joseph s Day (19 March) at the restaurants in Ston and Mali Ston. The Festival of Oysters is a gastro event which offers oysters and oysters dishes (oysters soup, oysters fritters, roasted oysters, fried or baked oysters in various ways) along with the Dalmatian song and a glass of good wine. We mainly consume the oyster fresh, on ice as cold hors-d oeuvre, i.e. as an introductory dish in a gastronomically well-composed menu. As a cold dish it can be served as a cocktail, oyster sald, various oyster mignons, oysters in fish jelly, canapé sandwiches.etc...
