Fortify Your Love with Oysters this Valentine's Day

With each passing day, Valentine’s Day is rapidly approaching with a concentrated vehemence. For the couples who still haven’t determinedly resolved on any particular event to partake on that day, fret not. Reserve a table for two at popular Seattle-styled seafood bar, Humpback, for an unforgettably luscious culinary experience. Here, you get to savour from an elaborate selection of sumptuous oysters specially sourced and farmed from Pacific Northwest at Happy hours prices from $2 each on Valentine’s Day. Just a quick fun fact for the uninitiated: The hallmark of voluptuousness, Casanova, used to consume fifty oysters per day. Since then, the sensuous-shaped oyster has been doggedly labelled as an aphrodisiac, making it the perfect round-up to the season of love.

Recommended platters include the classic Shigoku Fat Bastards oysters (pictured) that carry a delicate cucumber tinge as well as the Blue Pool that enshroud your palate with a pleasantly sweet carrot finish. As a bonus to spice up your date, Humpback has also come up with a suggestive Love Quiz for couple patrons to participate in.

Other more gratifying fares that you could indulge in at the side are innovative Egg Benedict (from $12, pictured) – a sophisticated infusion of crab and avocado instead of the usual bacon/ham, as well as Fried Egg (from $14) that is not only exquisitely platted but also delectable in its melodious fusion of octopus, orzo and Tete De Moine cheese. Featuring an aesthetically pleasant demeanor suffused within a cocoon of soothing background music, Humpback definitely got your Valentine’s Day covered.
