Poi Dog, the AAPI woman-owned sauce producer, and the seafood czars behind Giuseppe’s Market atSamuels Seafood, are partnering up to present the ultimate at-home Valentine’s Day shell-ebration! Couples can dive into the ultimate pairing of oysters and Poi Dog Chili Peppah Water with the Cupid’s Arrow Oyster Bundle for $40. The kit includes:

• 5 oz. bottle of Poi Dog Chili Peppah Water  
• One dozen Cupid’s Arrow Oysters (from Massachusetts) 
• A premium Dexter High-Carbon Steel Oyster Knife   

With Valentine’s Day on a Wednesday this year, there is over a week’s worth of opportune time to get saucy with the ultimate aphrodisiac duo. Cupid’s Arrow Oysters are plump, juicy and have an intensely briny taste with a clean finish. There is a defined vegetal undertone, which pairs perfectly with Poi Dog’s spicy and tangy Chili Peppah Water. The sauce brings a vinegary, gingery zing, and a muted spiciness that complements the inherent flavors of premium oysters without overpowering them.   

The Cupid’s Arrow Oyster Bundles are available exclusively for pickup at Giuseppe’s Market at Samuels Seafood (3400 S Lawrence St, Philadelphia, PA) from February 1^st through 17^th. Giuseppe’s Market at Samuels Seafood hours of operation are Monday through Saturday from 8am to 4pm.   

Chili Peppah Water is a popular condiment found on most tables in Hawai’i nestled next to the shoyu. Locals say “chili peppah water over everything” with “everything” referring to rice and meats, macaroni salad, vegetables, and more.
