    Lukshon, Culver City - Good Night and Good...

    As Lukshon — or in our case, friends with a reservation — would have it...

    raw: Malpeque Oysters

    Malpeque oysters from Prince Edward Island, sudachi long pepper mignonette [$15/$30]. Oysters were very deliciously "oyster-y." Drank sauce straight.

      This dinner looks absolutely incredible. I don't think I will ever be in Culver City to try it myself but I did enjoy looking at the pictures!
