Well, truth be told, the true number is 6; I didn't mention the other 2 places because they were type of restaurants from which you'd expect such. I've been told by doctors that, although I'm not allergic to shellfish, my body is extremely sensitive to the types of bacteria that are common in raw oysters (you seem to have a better handle on these specifics than I do).
