"John Michael Rowland ran Superior Seafood for years, where Gulf oysters were always the order of the day. He dreamt of having an oyster bar that went beyond the Gulf. Pigeon and Whale is that place. The menu changes daily, with options like sustainably farmed Brightside from Grande Isle and Murder Points from Sandy Bay, Alabama, as well as Moonstone from Rhode Island, Peter’s Creed from Onset, Massachusetts, and Shigoku from Bay Center, Washington." - Beth D'Addono
