“Tandoori” octopus from Le Dauphin in the 11th- probably the best octopus we’ve ever had (rivaled only by Craigie on Main in Cambridge, Mass).  This one was well seasoned, but more importantly had a charred, smoky flavour, yet was oh so tender.  If you’ve never had octopus before, this ought to be your first.  As a side note, Le Dauphin is up there among our favorite Paris restaurants, and there should be a full post on it here eventually.
