点评:OYSTER FARM SHOP – American River, Kangaroo Island
The Best Find Ever!
We arrived on Kangaroo Island outside of the prime tourist season and are so glad we did because we may not have discovered the Oyster Farm Shop otherwise. During a chat with a local in Kingscote it was recommended to us to go to the shop if we like seafood. Thank goodness we took that advice.
Forget fine dining, there is no need for silverware, getting dressed up or anything of the like. In fact you can turn as relaxed as can possibly be. The people are laid back and super friendly, and they know their product.
The Oyster Farm Shop is exactly that a shop front to sell the oysters they farm nearby in the river. Along with other fresh seafood and provedore items they source from other local businesses. The business runs on exceptional core values and is based on a sustainability and healthy model.
There is a menu, sort of, not really, well there are about two options. Just go for the daily harvest!
The Farm Shop Aquaplatter is a great way to taste the aquaculture and sustainable seafood from the island including Marron or King George Whiting, abalone and of course Oysters.
This is not a restaurant, fish and chip shop or a fish monger – they don’t even have a deep fryer! It's a harvest of the day concept so each day the menu options may be different. That is the beauty of the place, the freshness of the food.
It’s a funky little farm gate where the menu is based on fresh from ocean, best local product, grilled simply to allow visitors to the island to experience the beautiful island produce. The cutlery and crockery is all recyclable. Yep, it’s recyclable knives and forks, plates and the platter is served in a cardboard box that is also recycled. I’m not joking, this is the best box of goodies you will find.
So after having done a couple of hours of walking in the morning (we saw the farm) we decided it was time to relax and have some lunch. Our box was filled with absolute delights. Remember this is for just two people.
Naturally, there were a dozen oysters and you could genuinely taste the freshness, the best I have ever had. The dozen mussels were superb and just about my favourite part of the meal. Four pieces of perfectly grilled King George Whiting, wonderfully flavoured smoked mullet, prawns and a fish dip to smear on the island baked ciabatta were all delicious. There were big servings of coleslaw and a green salad and a number of dipping sauces to round out the options. Take a look at the picture to get an idea of just how much food we ate. This is what the word feast means.
Oh, and the best part of all, the box was just $100 for the two of us. That’s right, just $50 each for the freshest seafood you will try.
You want hidden treasures, well the Oyster Farm Shop is just that and so worth a visit. Kangaroo Island is amazing and should be somewhere you visit. This is the bonus for getting there.

有史以来最好的发现!
我们抵达袋鼠岛时正值旅游旺季之外,很高兴我们这样做了,否则我们可能就找不到牡蛎养殖场商店了。在与金斯科特的当地人聊天时,他建议我们如果喜欢海鲜就去这家商店。谢天谢地,我们采纳了这个建议。
忘掉精致的餐饮吧,这里不需要餐具、盛装打扮或诸如此类的东西。事实上,你可以尽可能地放松。人们悠闲而超级友好,他们了解自己的产品。
牡蛎养殖场商店就是这样一家店面,出售他们在附近河里养殖的牡蛎。他们还从其他当地企业采购其他新鲜海鲜和食品。这家企业以卓越的核心价值观运营,并以可持续性和健康模式为基础。
有一份菜单,但不是真的,大约有两个选项。每天收获就去吧!
Farm Shop Aquaplatter 是品尝岛上水产养殖和可持续海鲜的绝佳方式,包括马龙鱼或乔治王鳕鱼、鲍鱼,当然还有牡蛎。
这不是餐厅、炸鱼薯条店或鱼贩——他们甚至没有油炸锅!这是每日收获的概念,所以每天的菜单选项可能都不同。这就是这个地方的魅力所在,食物的新鲜度。
这是一个时髦的小农场,菜单以新鲜的海洋食材为基础,最好的当地产品,烧烤简单,让岛上的游客体验美丽的岛屿产品。餐具和陶器都是可回收的。是的,这是可回收的刀叉、盘子和盘子,放在同样可回收的纸板箱里。我不是在开玩笑,这是你能找到的最好的好吃的东西。
因此,在早上走了几个小时(我们参观了农场)之后,我们决定是时候放松一下,吃点午餐了。我们的盒子里装满了绝对的美味。请记住,这只是两个人的份量。
当然,里面有十几个牡蛎,你可以真正品尝到新鲜的味道,这是我吃过的最好的。十几个贻贝非常棒,几乎是我最喜欢的一餐。四片烤得恰到好处的乔治王鳕鱼、味道鲜美的烟熏鲻鱼、对虾和涂抹在岛上烤制的恰巴塔面包上的鱼酱都很美味。还有大份的凉拌卷心菜和一份绿色沙拉,以及一些蘸酱来完善选择。看看这张照片,你就知道我们吃了多少食物了。这就是盛宴这个词的意思。
哦,最棒的是,我们两个人的盒子只要 100 美元。没错,每人只需 50 美元,就可以品尝到最新鲜的海鲜。
如果你想寻找隐藏的宝藏,那么牡蛎养殖场商店就是你的不二之选,值得一游。袋鼠岛非常棒,值得一游。这是到达那里的额外收获。
