Squid Salad

Be the first to review!
It’s that balance that makes it so addictive—zesty, spicy, slightly sweet, and deeply savory all at once. Light enough to keep going back for more, but bold enough that every bite still feels exciting. You don’t just eat this salad… you kind of chase it, one refreshing, spicy bite after another.
