You have no idea what you are missing. It is delicious. When my son was
young he wanted to try some of my order of calamari because he wanted to
be able to tell his friends he had eaten something disgusting. He was
surprised that it was so good. A few years ago I was at a friend's
Christmas party at the same Greek restaurant and saw a kid at the buffet
table putting some on his plate. His brother whispered something to him,
which I gathered was advice that it was squid and not onion rings. The
kid hesitated but then went ahead and had a nibble of one and then gave
a look of approval and ate the rest.
