In recognition of this week’s NY Times article, “In Sicily, Tasting Seafood with a Skeptical Son,” this intrepid traveler and writer wanted to share my love of black seppia ink/cuttlefish pasta with you all. It may not be for everyone, but for those of us who are adventuresome, the rewards are great! Travel encourages you to step out of your comfort zone. As your guide, I will coach you through each inspired step. Thank you to Anthony LoFaso for the photos. … And yes, my teeth and lips were black for the rest of the night!
