Shuck Oyster Bar to open at The OC Mart MiX
WELCOME TO SERIOUS FUN
SHUCK OYSTER BAR TO OPEN AT THE OC MART MIX
The OC Mart MiX, a marketplace for gourmet foods, coffee and wine with over 30 shops under one roof in Costa Mesa at South Coast Collection (SOCO), is proud to announce the addition of Shuck Oyster Bar from the dynamic foodie duo, Noah Blom and Leonard Chan, who are making eating fun again.Opening sooner than you think, not as soon as we'd like, but soon enough to not be too late! Shuck, is a spot for people to mingle, glasses to clink, oysters to shuck, and mouths to slurp. Pleasantly proper without pretension, magically modern and comfortably clean. Delicious decadence dealing dastardly flavors of fantastic freshness. Super Cool. Or as Noah describes it, “Sexy slurping heirloom oyster mania and bubbling sipping sparkling love.”
The stars of the Shuck show will be seasonal oysters from all over our green and blue sphere, including impossible to find oysters. The supporting cast will be ranging from handpicked clams and mussels, a couple of happy chowders (probably a New England chowder and a seafood stew/chowder), a flawlessly grilled cheese sandwich that will make you weep from childhood memories, and some crisp and fresh salads to gnaw on.
Libations will include delicious local brews, a few bubblies to choose from, and of course, perfectly mixed mimosas. For those with a sweet tooth, look for Shuck to sling out pure cane sugar sodas.
MORE ON NOAH BLOM and LEONARD CHAN
Shuck isn’t Leonard’s and Noah’s first foray into the food world but it is their one official collaboration. Iron Press, which just opened at SOCO, is Leonard’s restaurant and Noah will soon be opening ARC, also at SOCO. Leonard says, “I dream of a day where a couple cruises through Shuck to start off with some oysters and maybe a little chowda, head over to the Iron Press for some tasty local crafted brews and a split a couple of warm and delicious gourmet waffle sandwiches, and end up at the ARC sipping on hand crafted artisan cocktails finishing off with a warm beet salad, some flat bread, and maybe a terrific wood-fire roasted fish.”
When most people look at an oyster they see exactly what it is; For Noah Blom he sees something different, the magic and the mayhem of nature and a love and lust for all things culinary. To Noah the oyster represents the slurpy sex of a bygone era. After being trained in the kitchens of San Francisco and New York City, Noah returns home to mesh his knowledge and passion for the exquisite and hard to find into the mental fabric of Orange County. Escaping from 13 treacherous years under the oppression of working in the Information Technology realm, Leonard Chan has been committed to establishing Orange County as a culinary destination. With the South Coast location of California Shabu Shabu chiseled in, blending local beer, meat, and waffles with just opened The Iron Press, what better endeavor to embark on than bringing an extensive selection of luscious and delectable oysters to messily (yet sexily) indulge on?

Analog, an ideal fusion of music and art specializing in handmade, unique items celebrating sound and art, is now open atThe OC Mart MiX, a marketplace for gourmet foods, coffee and wine with over 30 shops under one roof in Costa Mesa at South Coast Collection (SOCO).

music equipment, handmade furnishing and accessories, local entrepreneur and musician, Alex Forsythe, created Analog to get musicians and sound enthusiasts something to be excited about again.
As a working musician for over a decade, Alex has come to realize how important the tone of the instrument is in any given situation. “I've toured the country and visited music shops in close to 30 states,” says Analog founder Alex Forsythe. “I've spent years trying to find the most unique, well made and interesting sounding guitar effect pedals to achieve that tone. Realizing that getting these pedals, and this tone, isn't as easy as going to a local guitar center and picking a few things up, I decided to bring these items to local Orange County musicians. The pedals at Analog are all handmade, hand wired and made by people around the country who truly care about tone.”
