Island Creek Oysters at Hillside

The Vinegar Hill House team recently opened Hillside directly next door. The new space has a tremendous wine selection, a small plates menu and most importantly, oysters from Island Creek Oysters in Duxbury, Massachusetts. One of my upcoming farm to table photo stories for Nona Brooklyn features Dana Hale of ICO, the pearly beauties themselves, Hillside and chef Brian Leth. Working backwards on this series, here are some shots from the restaurant. I'm heading to Duxbury next week for a shoot at the farm.

I find the empty shells to be exquisite. Like the human fingerprint, no one shell is the same as the one next to it.
