The Oyster Seekers

Think of Whitstable and you think of oysters. Think of oysters and you think of Wheelers - the original Wheelers, which spawned the most successful group of fish restaurants in the world. The world famous oyster bar is still tucked away in the quiet Kentish fishing town of Whitstable, serving only the best seafood and producing masterpieces of modern fish cookery. Lavishly illustrated, beautifully written with recipes that go beyond the mouth-watering, The Oyster Seekers is a magical book about seafood, the people who catch it, how to buy it, how to cook it and most of all, how to enjoy it to the full.

Mandy Bruce was the author of numerous biographies and children's books. She was also a highly successful Fleet Street journalist. Her great love was Whitstable, where she and her husband, Ross, lived in a house on the beach.
