My favorites are Appalachicola oysters eaten at Gene's Oyster Bar in Panama City. Gene personally selects the oysters as they are unloaded at the dock. If they are not to his liking, he just closes for the day! I always call to make sure they are open.

The oysters are shucked in front of you, as you sit at the bar. There is no alcohol served....only Cokes in the old fashioned green bottles, which you help yourself to from one of those old Coke coolers with the bottle opener on the side.

The raw oysters are served on a plastic tray, with sleeves of saltine crackers, and homemade hot sauce made by Mrs. Gene. The heat in the sauce depends on whether she is mad at Gene or not.

After you have eaten all you want, they count the empty oyster shells and total your bill. Pure heaven!
