Felix Seafood Restaurant in New Orleans
Brenna Kelsey of Boston, Massachusetts, blows hot Carbroiled Oysters at Felix's Seafood Restaurant. Owner John Rontonti say's 60% of his oysters come from the east side of the Mississippi where the oil spill from the Deepwater Horizon wellhead is moving. The BP leased oil platform exploded on April 20 and sank after burning. A scientist from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration had concluded that oil is leaking at the rate of 5,000 barrels a day, not 1,000 as had been estimated.
