Any visit to Tofino should include one of these beauties: a broiled beach oyster with hazelnut pesto and grana padano Parmesan cheese (accompanying garlic toast not in frame). It tasted cleanly of the sea, but with a hot and nutty, salty, multi-textural chaser of indulgent deliciousness that made us want another as soon as it was gone.
