Maybe SH pays better than we thought?
We know we've been posting a lot of videos lately, but this one was too engrossing not to pass along. It's Christopher St. Cavish, former motorcycling philanthropist and current food writer at SH magazine, eating a live baby octopus at a Korean restaurant in Shanghai. According to the YouTube page:
It was for a magazine article, stupid, tasted terrible, and fueled by alcohol.
We saw Chris on the street recently, so we can confirm that he survived.
UPDATE: Here's Chris' story: Confessions of a baby octopus killer

Very "Old Boy"- I've never seen this done in Korea, had the san nakji a few times, where they cut it up then eat while it wriggles around, but this seems a bit too much like russian roulette for me.
I really like this guy's writing in SH magazine, been to a lot of places that he's recommended, never been disappointed.
where is the restaurant?I wanna eat this little "monster".
