I haven't had oysters rockefeller yet, but it sounds really good to me.

I haven't tried this one yet either, but I think it could be good!
Finely grate ½ a thumb-sized piece of peeled ginger and mix with 6 tablespoons of rice wine vinegar, 1 finely chopped and deseeded red chilli and a little finely sliced fresh coriander. Stir in a teaspoon of sugar until dissolved. Serve in a dish with the oysters.

We went to a persian restaurant a few years ago and had an appetizer of oysters and caviar with sour cream. It wasn't a combination I would have thought of by myself but it was absolutely wonderful!
