It’s National Oyster Day! Wiltons Announces the Return of its Annual Oyster Masterclasses

WILTONS CELEBRATES THE START OF THE NATIVE OYSTER SEASON WITH AN EXCLUSIVE OYSTER MASTERCLASS

Starting life as an oyster barrow in London’s Haymarket in 1742, Wiltons restaurant, located on Jermyn Street, has continued to celebrate its love of oysters ever since, with a series of renowned Oyster Masterclasses taking place on the first Friday evening of every month from September to April.

Starting on 5th September 2024, Wiltons’ Oyster Masterclasses will take place in the famous Oyster Bar, from 5.30pm until 7.00pm. The classes will be led by Wiltons’ resident Oyster Master Tommaso Sicuro, who will enchant novices and aficionados alike while debunking the myths surrounding the opening and eating of oysters. Guests will also learn about their health benefits while sampling a range of oysters from around the British Isles.

A dozen oysters – six raw and six cooked – are accompanied by a glass of chilled Champagne and two glasses of sommelier-selected wine for £125 per person.

The Oyster Masterclasses are ideal for a romantic date, as an anniversary or birthday treat, a special experience for food lovers, a Christmas gift, or corporate celebrations and incentives. Both fun and instructive, the Masterclass can be followed by dinner in the main restaurant – either the set menu or a la carte – for guests who wish to continue their evening at Wiltons.

This year’s Oyster Masterclasses at Wiltons (55 Jermyn Street, London, SW1Y 6LX) will take place on Friday 6th of September, Friday 4th of October, Friday 8th of November, and after the Christmas break until April – on Friday 10th of January, the 7th of February, the 7th of March, and the 4th of April.

Awarded an unprecedented six royal warrants between 1836 and 1936, Wiltons is regarded as the most luxurious and knowledgeable London restaurant famed for serving the finest oysters and seafood from its suppliers around the British Isles.
