Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
They served us monkfish liver when Perkins and I last did omakase. Christ, that was horrible. So my omakase no-no list is now chicken eggs, tentacled beasts of the sea, and any liver. Blecch.
A huge step forward for female gamers?

I didn't think it was that bad, but yeah, there is too much other really good stuff to bother with the "I guess it's not that bad" stuff. I like it better than the urchin though.
eta: and now I want to go have omakase at the Hump. Sad.

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."
tentacled beasts of the sea
Now *that's* a menu item.

Especially when they are still moving.

Had urchin when I went out for my birthday. It wasn't something I'd seek out, but it also wasn't something that I needed to get out of my mouth ASAP. The monkfish liver definitely was in that category.

If I only had a brain...
I, for one, am always more empowered when photographed naked. It's a thing.

I haven't been photographed naked lately. Perhaps that's why I am sometimes ineffective.

See, I love chicken eggs. Not so much hardboiled (or deviled - yechh) but scrambled, poached, over easy, sunny side up, in omlettes, in quiche, in cheese souffle - all of teh yum. And I don't mind calamari, though I don't seek it out. I didn't realize monkfish was tentacled, though. I just thought it was fugly. Somehow missed the liver next to the monkfish.
Weirdest thing I enjoyed was escargot, and though I guess almost anything with that much butter and garlic would taste good, I was surprised the texture didn't gross me out.
Weirdest vegatable I like is fiddleheads, but they have to be prepared right or they are Nasty.

I have no problem with the bits of monkfish that aren't its liver.
