Neptune's Delite
I've been messing around with this recipe for six years or so and have finally got it to where I like it. This is my version of a dish that used to be served at the "House of Hunan" before it burned down. When they rebuilt it was in a new venue with a new menu and 'Calamari in Black Bean Sauce' was no longer available. Let me know how you like it.
