Past Events - By ShuckerPaddy

So many events over the years! These are just a few of the Experiential Food events that Paddy has created  .

Spirit of Toronto May 7, 2022 - An Sibin Oisri - The Oyster

Additional Information

Supping on Oysters speaks to the Merroir of where the Oyster Comes from. 

When at the OysterBar customers would always sak…”what should I Drink with my Oysters?”

Wine is a normal answer and pairing a beverage that is produced as local to where the Oyster is Grown, is a fun, and tasty offering. 

But what of Scotland, Ireland - not a lot of Wine produced here, and lovely great Oysters. 

Michael Jackson (the Beer and Whisky Writer) once suggested to me - “Try Oysters & Oban!”

So I got to thinking - and my Shuck & Tipple pairings began. 


I’ll be Shuckin’Around the Spirit of Toronto Soirée May 7, 2022 showcasing an Secretive and Seductive menu - Come and Find me, at Roy Thompson Hall - and we will have a Spirited chat of Oysters.


Weekends with Paddy - Three Days of Shuckin’ Around - The Co

Opening Oysters - as Fast as possible - without damaging the Meat within the shells.

Official Oyster Shucking Contests have been around for over 60 years, and unofficially - since Humans started Shuckin’Around.

The Art of Shucking is using Sharp knife to break open rock-hard shells and reveal the salty sweet  meat within. The hard part is 1. Not stabbing yourself, and 2. Not stabbing the Oyster. 

There are many different Oyster Shucking contest formats around the World. 

At AwShucks Oyster Fest we will showcase 3 styles - Local - 12 Oysters, Canadian Champs - 18 Oysters and World’s 30.

Friday - Open and Novice Shuckers - 12 Oysters - a sprint - to get your feet wet in the Contest World. Top 3 make it to the ProInvitational, Saturday

Saturday - Pro Invitational - these Shuckers have been around the Block, and are ready to Pop&Drop - Set in Heats of 3, every 2 Hours of the Fest - Shucking 18 Oysters based on the Canadian Shucking Champs. Shucked and Presented to the judges…The Top 6 will head to the Finals on Sunday.   

Sunday - Based on the World Championships of Galway Ireland, The Finals are a Set of 30 Barstool Oysters. A Much Longer contest than most, Endurance plays a factor on the Top 6! 


Lest Get Ready To Tumble!!!!
