Fun & Games: Sudoku On The Half-Shell


The Cape is known for its oysters. An incredible festival is held each fall to celebrate the Wellfleet oyster. In Dennis Port, we have the much celebrated, The Oyster Company restaurant (re-opening April 17th) where you can enjoy delicious Dennis Quivet Neck Oysters while listening to great live music. As a cook shop and restaurant supplier, we have just about every tool and accessory to make eating and serving oysters even more enjoyable. And now we are thrilled to present another unique, oyster-themed item that was created by a life-long Cape Cod summer resident. Sujiken: Sudoku on the Half Shell is the brainchild of George Heineman, an avid puzzler, college professor, and friend. George is one of those adorable (okay, George)--handsome, quick witted genius-fellas with a fantastic attitude, and he has helped me out of a jam or two when all else had hopelessly failed...like when my master's thesis was mistakenly erased, etc. Remarkably, he never makes me feel like an idiot, which I really appreciate. A Sudoku variation, Sujiken is played on a right-triangle arrangement in which numbers cannot repeat, even along the diagonal. It's almost as addictive and pleasure inducing as indulging in oysters-on-the-half shell, and three times as fun. We suggest pairing your Sujiken: Sudoku on the Half Shell book with a plate of oysters and a nice Sauvignon Blanc, or grab a beer (or two) and enjoy a few Sujiken puzzles while relaxing on the beach. We are thrilled to offer George's book for sale in our store and on our website (he is awesome to the 3rd power and is married to one of my favorite people!) And we wish him much success!!!
