Midnight Diner and Octopus Sausages (This Counts as Breakfast Too)

Midnight Diner's very first episode features Ryu, a yakuza who loves octopus sausages, and Kosuzu, the owner of a gay bar who loves sweet tamagoyaki. Two people utterly different in looks, occupation, and taste grow close after a chance moment of sharing their drinking snacks with each other. The English word "companion," the Spanish "compañero," the Italian "compagno," the French "copain" — they all trace back to the Latin com (together) and panis (bread). Sharing food together is that precious, that special an experience. #midnightdiner #octopussausage Slice an onion thin, sprinkle with a little salt and pepper, and sauté until translucent. Score the Vienna sausages to make six little "legs" on each, then blanch briefly until they transform into octopuses. #midnightwhichistosaydeepnightsoonleadstomorningsothisisbreakfasttoo
