Yes, Gardner is a master at shucking and serving up the best oysters, which is enough to fall in love with, but his openness and welcoming soul is what really gets you. So, if you want more Gardner—and who doesn’t—check out his podcast, Oyster Ninja or learn some shucking tips from this sensei of the bivalve on his YouTube channel. If you’re fortunate enough to live in the DC area, he’ll even deliver you some of his hand-chosen oysters right to your front door.
