September 27: Join the International Oyster Festival in Ireland with Rich Oyster Recipes!
Every September in Galway, Ireland, the International Oyster Festival is celebrated. It's an iconic food festival where the Irish and World Oyster Opening Championships take place, and guests have the chance to sample a number of stunning dishes that make oysters the centerpiece - something you too can achieve with the help of Dishfolio's food bloggers.
The International Oyster Festival was held for the first time in 1954, and has become gradually more popular ever since. Nowadays, Galway's traditional oyster restaurants and more contemporary sushi outlets serve their cuisines at the festival. If you need presentation advice for seafood, serving oysters on the half shell is a great idea - especially if you're interested in culinary photography.
Despite the intense competition witnessed at Galway's Oyster Festival, however, the world record for the most oysters opened in a minute was set in Beijing by Canadian Patrick McMurray, and stands at an impressive 38.
