McCormick & Kuleto’s Seafood Restaurant is hosting their 18th annual Shuck & Swallow Oyster Competition on Tuesday night.

Approximately a dozen teams, each consisting of two members from various Bay Area restaurants, will be competing to see who can shuck and swallow the most oysters in 10 minutes. The event begins at 5:00 p.m. and is free to view.

Following the competition, the restaurant will be hosting a $30 oyster and wine pairing, which will benefit The Marine Mammal Center.

There will also be live entertainment for the evening.
