Hey readers, it’s Tatum. Good news — I heard all-you-can-eat oyster roasts are back at Container Bar. This downtown watering hole is one of my favorite spots to grab a drink + a bite in the Holy City.

Make room for bottomless mollusks every Sunday from 1-4 p.m. for $20 at 2130 Mt Pleasant St. Heads up: Container Bar will be capping its oyster roasts once the bar reaches capacity, so get there early. See you there.
