Order a dozen fresh oysters and carefully shuck each one, hoping to find that rare natural treasure inside. While the odds are roughly 1 in 10,000, the anticipation makes each oyster exciting, and even without a pearl, you'll enjoy some of the ocean's finest delicacies.

โ€œHaha I did bite into it, but fortunately not too hard. Thought it was a piece of shell at first. Auspiciously enough, found it at the restaurant named Pearl in Wellfleet during their raw bar happy hour. Thought Iโ€™d lost it because it fell into the fries. Brought the fries home and re-found it during a midnight snack.โ€
