If you have ever, like me, lusted after beautiful oysters in a fish market and grown angry that those very same oysters will cost you twice as much a restaurant, head up to Cosenza's on Arthur Ave in the Bronx. Shucked before your very eyes at $1.25 per shell, the oysters are, while a bit muddy (just the shells: use a fork and you'll be fine!), fresh and juicy as can be. The lobster-sized cooked shrimp are available with cocktail sauce for $.75 per tail. You can eat at the outside counter and chat up your shucker or you can sidle up at one of the two outside tables.
