With tonight's unveiling of Jeff Black's very own oysters at Pearl Dive Oyster Palace, it's time to examine just how DC got so oyster crazy. This week's Young & Hungry column explores that very subject, explaining, "The appeal is two-fold: Restaurateurs get something no one else has, while claiming a direct hand in helping clean the local waterways. Oysters are already known as aphrodisiacs, but as a marketing device, chefs seem to believe signature oysters are straight-up sexy." [WCP]
