Octopus Blomps

Delicious ready-to-eat octopus blomps. Inside each one of these doughnut hole type blomps is a piece of grilled octopus. The savoury batter is mixed with some chopped green onion, has a very slight chewiness to it, and comes out of these hot griddle pans soft and perfectly browned.


These snack trucks are found in every neighbourhood across the city so you can always be sure to find a tasty treat when going for a nice evening walk. And really, who wouldn't want to go for a walk when there are so many interesting snacks to be eaten.


A closer view of the octopus blomp snack truck. As you can see, it is a simple and humble snack stop with some charming lanterns lighting your way to the snack. Snack snack snack.


Once ordered, the blomps are drizzled with a sweet & spicy sauce, some mayo, some deep-fried tidbits, a scattering of chopped green onion, then covered with a handful of shaved octopus. Yumm!


Close-up of my last blomp. It was a tasty and unusual treat with a diverse combination of textures which made for a perfect 9pm snack. Next snack stop will be at midnight, he heh.
