I haven’t eaten real cuttlefish, but Taiwan snack foods with dried cuttlefish as a flavouring, its soooo good.

I am so happy you cam to my home town Sai Kung! =)
There are lots of weird and strange looking seafood in Sai Kung, and although i’ve not tried all of it, i love looking at them still in the tank. I don’t think i fancy starfish sashimi either, and fyi, i’ve tried sea cucumber’s many times before (forced by my parents) and have never like it, urgh. it’s supposed to be very good for your skin though as it has high collagen levels.

I quite honestly think 1 would eat it raw, sashimi style, with soya sauce and wasabi. But I wouldn’t try it, would you?

How do they prepare the Starfish? Aside from deep frying to a crisp, I can’t imagine what kind of dish you can make with them…

But the good thing is they really have all kinds of weird fishes , all kind of weird seafood..
even one that looked like the guy “uhm uhm”.

I had a fun time exploring the seafood and wondering who the hell will eat the live... "guy reproduction system lookalike" seafood.

With it crawling and twirling around…… i couldnt even bear the sight of looking at it.. dont say eating it. EEEW

I’ve had some rather strange snail-like critters that have long, skinny, twisted shells. Tasted a bit like whelks, which are also a bit peculiar. Sea cumcumber sushi is very good, actually, though I don’t want to be the one preparing it.

I think horseshoe crabs are about the only thing I would not touch for any amount of money. Will never forget the first one I ever saw. I was in a tuk-tuk in Bangkok, the driver stopped at a stall in a street market, hopped out, and came back with one of the things – alive – which he put in a sort of harness that he’d hung from a control on the dashboard… It looked for all the world like some kind of prehistoric fossil. Weird in the extreme. And not something I’d put on my table.

There are 3 forms for the plural of octopus and they octopuses, octopi, and octopodes. Octupi is correct though octopuses are the most common.

They look quite cute, actually!
