Oysterfest at 508!

There is little better in this life than a handful of oysters, some delicious horseradish-based sauces in which to dip them and a nice cold beer. That is why we raced to 508 Restaurant & Bar, a cute little bistro located right around the corner from Ear Inn in the far West Village to try their Oysterfest Oktoberfest special. For $15, oyster fans get six oysters (from which there are seven varieties to choose) and a pint of beer (they offer six German and Belgian brews). We tried a whole slew of oysters, and enjoyed the Hama Hamas, which were creamy, delicate and went down real easy. October is nearly over, as is this yummy deal, so if you find yourself in that neck of the woods, go on and snag some 'sters.
