4 of Singapore’s best fresh oyster deliveries

Jazz up dinner or happy hour at home with live oysters freshly shucked and delivered straight to your doorstep.

Given their perishability, live oysters have to be handled carefully to maintain their freshness. We’ve rounded up some of the best oyster deliveries that ensure quality shellfish every time. Savour the succulent, briny molluscs with bubbly, make them part of a whole seafood spread, or share the love by sending them as a care package.

The Oyster Cart

The mobile oyster bar has been catering for events and providing on-site oyster shucking services since 2013. Special bundles are now available to order for delivery like the Founder’s Series, which feature the season’s best oysters; The Carnivore Series, for those who enjoy larger oysters; and The Aphrodisiac Love Bundle, where you can opt to pair your oysters with sake, wine or beer. According to the founder, Adam, he has been seeing some of the freshest oysters in recent times and at lower costs, allowing him to include 50 percent more oysters in each bundle for a limited time. And rest assured when it comes to quality – Adam carefully selects and freshly hand-shucks each mollusc himself.
