I've had it, and I managed to make it once or twice. I've used the
following recipe:
The fish is not octopus, but cuttlefish. Insure that you get large,
*fresh* cuttlefish, and that there is no skin, so that it is completely
white. You need a piece 3 inches by eight inches, and about a quarter
inch thick.
Make a pocket through the cuttlefish, in the eight inch direction. Cut
through the three inch sides, not the eight inch sides. You should
leave 1/2-3/4" on either side. The cuttlefish should be a tube.
Cut a strip of smoked salmon a little wider than the pocket, and wrap
it in sheet nori. Fold it or whatever you have to do is to stuff it
in. You now have a three layer concoction, with salmon inside, a layer
of nori, and cuttlefish outside.
Grill this until the cuttlefish is done, and the edges are starting to
get a little browned.
Remove to a cutting board. With a very sharp knife, cut the fish into
3/8" thick slices, at about a 45 degree angle. When you look at a cut
edge of the slice, you will see the pattern of the eye. The cut shape
of the cuttlefish, and the fact that it shrinks slightly while cooking,
will have forced the salmon and nori layers into sort of a catseye
shape.
I've generally seen this served hot, without sauce.
