Octopus Tostada

📍 Los Angeles Mexican Seafood $$

at Holbox

"Gilberto Cetina's octopus tostada is a lesson in restraint. The octopus is charred perfectly — tender inside, slightly crispy at the edges. The black bean provides earthiness. The avocado cools it. The arbol chile brings it back. This is one of the best bites in Los Angeles."
