Devour oysters on Sunday for charity

You want oysters? Addie’s restaurant on Rockville Pike will be serving them up four ways at their annual charity Oyster Roast on Sunday.

Roasted, fried, shucked and barbecued — the tasty little bivalves will be getting devoured just the same, between noon and 5 p.m. Other items available will include barbecued chicken, chili, hot dogs, beer and wine. There’ll be live music from two bands, a costume contest and pumpkin decorating for the kids, plus an oyster eating competition and silent auction.

Proceeds go toward Black Restaurant Group’s goal of raising $200,000 to build a special teaching kitchen at the National Diabetes Care Complex at Children’s National Medical Center.

Tickets are $50 in advance or $60 at the door. Kids 5-12 are $20, 4 and under free.
