Pied de cheval oysters or horse’s hooves oysters are a wild and ancient variety of flat oyster and have a specific shape like a horse’s hoove. They are usually from Brittany and Normandy, France.

Pied de cheval oysters are extremely big, each oyster weights in average 300gr and quite rare. They have a strong taste very iodized.

They are served as a delicacy for connoisseurs either raw or cooked in low temperature. The Season of pied de cheval oysters is November to February.

In 1898, the Madec family settled in Lannilis in the meadow of Coum on the sheltered banks of the Aber Benoît. Early oyster farmers in the Abers, they choose the best parks to farm in. In Prat-Ar-Coum, big tables like the "Maison Prunier" or "l'Huîtrière" in Lille already exist.

These basins are still visible today on the beaches at Prat-Ar-Coum. The oyster farming industry in each of these countries has faced hardships (war, epizootics, oil spills) and passed on its knowledge and mastery to the next generation. It is now the turn of the 5th generation of Madec to join the firm.
