I had a half-dozen oysters (Dennisport MA) and a single lamb kofta kebab. We shared the tomato-burrata-pesto skillet (served w/ Iggy's toasted bread), fries, and we did a 3-way split of the fried ricotta ball dessert (one each).  Plenty of cocktails, too.  :) All very tasty.

Is this dollar oyster thing every day??? That's a great list of restaurants so I'm definitely interested in checking out the Bluebird now.

I mean, you had me at ample parking!

$1 Oysters Daily 3pm - 5pm | Fri & Sat 10pm - 11pm

I parked in the Cherry Lot.  Turn onto Cherry Street from Washington, then left into the lot.  You can access the lot from Elm Street, too.  Parking is through the Passport app, and just runs until 6 pm.  Compared to parking in Boston and Cambridge, it is a bah-gain!

Met up w/ my friends again last night at the Bluebird Bar in Newton.  We decided to try their  Monday night Blue Plate Special.  OMG.  Beef stroganoff over buttered noodles that included a salad and dessert.  Delicious and very reasonably priced (for Boston).  The dollar oysters were excellent South Bay Blondes. Such a steal! 


Bluebird posts their planned Monday Blue Plate Specials on their Sunday Instagram so we're going to check to see what's being served then meet up monthly.  At any rate, for my fellow Massholes who can get to Newton on a Monday afternoon after 3:00, I recommend it!  They also have a live jazz trio on Monday nights from 7 to 9.  Their regular menu is pretty good, too!
