Cuttle fish ????

[Eggy]

Well Guys , !!
After living here for, 10 years now, I finally got to try CUTTLEFISH , at the Athina , Arillas.
A tad worried but Spiros, owner, told me "You Donna like it-I taka it back" (He's not Italian - Is he??"

Twas very good and looked like slices of pasta in a vegetable sauce. - Wasn't pasta but like squid slices  , and for me, an extra fishy taste. - Liked it , very much , so if you're given a choice then try it.

Biggest problem was a possible eyeball in the dish.  Twas either an eye or a marble that found it's way onto the plate. Apart from that a clean plate at the end of the meal.
(But , the eyeball?? - Don't like to be stared at when I'm eating!!)

Cheers

You can be daft Eggy! In a nice, informative, entertaining way I love to hear about what you're up to.

Nice to "hair" from you but you should "nose" by now that "eye" do the face jokes round "ear".
Chin up - Only joking.

I never used to eat much fishy stuff, except Mackerel of course,  but have, recently, been partial to the likes of marinated octopus, squid and I think I would have the cuttlefish again.

Will try some in May as I have never had any. Do they go with salt n vinegar and chips.

and a pickled onion !

Maybe it wasn't an eye but a pickled onion!!!

Wendy n Stu, methinks this type of thing will not be on Summer menu's. Goat in red wine sauce and goat stew may be others you could miss out on. Silly me , I know , but when I have goat stew I always ask for the "billy" at the end of the meal!
