Yummy yum yum! What a truly fabulous experience Avra offers! I dined with the cast of VH1’s hit show Mob Wives — Renee Graziano, Carla Facciolo and Karen Gravano — at this Greek restaurant located in New York City’s trendy Midtown East area on May 1 — and we all couldn’t help but rave over the delicious food. But I have to say from the wide selection of seafood the menu has to offer, the tastiest dish of the evening was their Charcoal Grilled Octopus appetizer!
Avra shared their special recipe with HollywoodLife.com exclusively so that our BFFs could have to chance to a make this delish dish at their homes. Here’s the recipe!
