National Oysters Rockefeller Day

January 10 is National Oysters Rockefeller Day, celebrating the rich and flavorful dish that originated in New Orleans. Created in 1899 by Jules Alciatore at Antoine's Restaurant, Oysters Rockefeller was named after John D. Rockefeller, the wealthiest American at the time, due to its rich taste. The original recipe remains a closely guarded secret, though it has been imitated and adapted in various ways.

While Oysters Rockefeller originated in New Orleans, seafood enthusiasts in Pennsylvania can enjoy this delicacy at several establishments. Here are a few notable restaurants offering Oysters Rockefeller:
