After spending a few nights at The Raleigh Hotel in fabulous South Beach in Miami, Florida, I just had to try the Octopus Salad. $10 at lunch and $16 at dinner.
So would you try it?

Your a braver man than I Gunga Dinn
Yeah I had to try it once!
Too scary for me!
I am following, hope you can stop by for a visit!
Thanks, Becky Jane
Raising kids can be a lot like weeding the rose bed…well worth it, but…OUCH!

I know. It is a little scary looking!!
OMG that is so disgusting LOL There is NO WAY I would try that!
Ha ha! I think that it looks really cool!
I’d definitely try it, but not if I was with my daughter, she’d freak, LOL!
Did you like it?
My youngest child would have definitely freaked out!
Wow! I can’t stop starting at that photo!
I know! It is kind of mesmerizing, isn’t it?
It looks interesting but I think I would have a hard time eating it. Maybe chicken?? Hope it was a great salad.
I closed my eyes and thought of chicken. Just kidding!
It did taste like Calamari to me.
You are brave Stacie!! I vote NO WAY . . .
Thanks for the linky! Come by and link up to mine too . . . check out the Cool Canines! Gina’s Wordless Wednesday
Have a wonderful Wednesday . . . Gina
I have traveled a lot and tried some really strange stuff but this definitely ranks up there!
Yikes! Being a vegetarian, I’d say no, I probably wouldn’t try it. But I’ll bet it is better than it looks!
It was kind of scary at first but I liked it once I tried it!
OMG! Ewwwww! I could never eat that! lol Was it good?
Kas
It was good. Tasted just like Calamari to me.
Umm, I’m kind of a foodie but I’m going to have to pull a line from the kids and say, “Can I be full now?”
My kids still cannot believe that I ate it.
Wow, that is gorgeous! Not sure if I could actually get myself to eat it, though!
New Follower!

It was really cool looking. I just had to take a picture!
Oh my – I think I would try it, though I’m not sure I would enjoy it.
I wasn’t too sure at first but it was definitely worth trying!
*Shivers* Oh, you are so much braver than I am! There is absolutely no way I could ever eat something like that. I admire anyone who is willing to try it, though. And the photo itself is really gorgeous. That octopus truly just leaped out at me. Which added to the shivers. LOL
You know, that was the thing. I really just wanted to try it!
I love octopus sushi – that looks delicious!
It really was good. I was a little freaked out at first when they put it down in front of me but it tasted great.
This definitely wouldn’t be my 1st choice but if I can eat calamari, I should be able to eat this too (right?).
Yes! It tasted just like Calamari!! Really.
was it deep fried or boiled? makes a colorful dish, but I tried it once, yuck, too rubbery!
It was grilled!
Wow you are so brave! I’m really into seafood and I’m not good at trying new things. Looks interesting though!
I’m sorry, but I am not anywhere near that brave!
But it does look really cool.
Visiting from Hobo Mama and Natural Parents Network!
Was it good?

Wow! You are brave! I don’t think I could eat that…..:)
I love the colors, but I don’t think I’d ever bring myself to try it!
I’m willing to try a lot of things, but that is NOT one of them. So, what was your opinion? Did you like it?
Umm in a word NO – and I consider myself to be quite adventurous with food but that…just scares me! LOL
Looks frighting, yet beautiful. I’m a vegetarian, so I wouldn’t eat it, but I remember how tasty octopus could be : )
I don’t think I could even look at my plate, let alone eat it. Something about that as a salad garnish ewww lol
No way!
No, definitely would NOT try it. I’m scared to even touch shrimp!
It is sort of pretty in a freaky artist way. Would I try it? Probably not. I tried that calimarie (sure that spelled wrong) and the octopus seemed way to chewy. Was it tender at all?
I am the WRONG person to ask that. LOL! Our kids are always wanting to try new things but I grew up a meat and potatoes girl. I like trying some new things…very….very…slowly. baby steps. it took me til early 20s to try broccoli! That thing looks way too science fictiony to me! (Im a weenie and would probably stare or faint if something like this was placed in front of me!)
First of all, that is an absolutely gorgeous photo. Loving the colors and composition. Brave of you to try, yes!
When I was visiting Greece, we had octopodi (octopus) and ouzo. It was quite common there and actually very good! I went out with a Greek friend in his boat to see how they catch octopus at night. They either bang them on the rocks or turn them inside out. Very disturbing!
No way…never gonna happen.
I am not a seafood person in the first place but there is just no way, lol. It does make a pretty picture though.
