I had baby octopus, it had nice texture and light in flavour. Very similar to Calamari.If you can describe it, what's octopus taste like?
I do love prawns
Wow Mike ,I like fish and seafood a lot.Whist in the Pacific( Solomon Islands) on a very small island,we hosted fishermen catching Trochus Lumea, which has Mother of Pearl like interior. These large sea snails were boiled up in 45 gallon Drums to empty the Shell. We ate the meat which was rather like a Giant Whelk.
When working on a larger island and living at a District centre ,I cooked a Turtle Casserole as a first meal for nurse living next door,she later became my wife.Tasted somewhere between chicken and fillet steak.I was given the Turtle meat by Islanders. We also got nice large fresh water prawns from a nearby river.
I’ve been to the farm , met the owner , toured the farm , tasted the Oysters straight out of the water , it’s set in a stunningly beautiful location .Can’t follow Mike’s story, but on the East coast for a few days so did my usual Yesterday and had a couple of Lindisfarne oysters as a starter, lovely, real taste of the sea.

I knew I'd been in Japan too long when I started enjoying nattōI love seafood (with some exceptions) but the worst thing I had was on Okinawa. It was a fermented cannonball jellyfish topped with a strawberry. Let's just say the strawberry lulled me into a false sense of security. I really enjoyed almost everything I ate out there but the jellyfish and the nattō were beyond the pale. Okinawan roulette, eating off a menu in a script you can't read?

I loved yakiniku, teppanyaki, yakitori, all noodles, okonomiyaki, sushi etc, in fact almost everything save for a few fishy items. But it took a few years to get there!I loved the country. But their food? Very questionable
