A boiled octopus gingerly wrapped in the chef's own homemade dried pasta, then tenderly fried.
A zuppa starring a blend of squid ink and octopus juices given off during the cooking process.
And...
And if you look closely enough, I'm sure you can see tiny tiny pieces of octopus splashing around in the sea.
No?
Look closer...
Or better yet, pay the chef a visit.
