Does anyone know where I can buy freshly cooked (i.e. deep fried) squid/octopus on the street?

Question

Years ago I lived in Sydney, and there was a place in one of the subways on the way into Town Hall station that sold fresh, hot, deep fried, crumbed squid with a lemon slice in a paper bag to take away. Divine! I've looked all over London and haven't found such a place. Anyone got any ideas?

Answer 1

Answer 2

I don't know where you could get these but a programme I saw a few nights ago on the Television put me right off.I think it was China,they were eating these things alive,Yuck.Some people had actually choked on the things because they were suctioning on to their throats.

Answer 5
