Looks aren't everything. Octopus sushi is delicious (properly made, of course), but looks like...well...not very attractive. OTOH, Brussels sprouts look just fine, nice tidy mini-cabbages, but I can't gag one of those things down to save my life.
Or, as Mr. M. used to say, ''Sonny, da's wha dey's more dan one dish on a mahnyu''.
Octopus sushi? Oooh. I'd need a lot of sake or ouzo to brave that one. I know a Greek restaurant that makes wonderful fried calamari, but that's about as adventurous as I go. I don't mind Brussels sprouts if they are prepared right, but my husband thinks they are the spawn of Satan, so I don't ever bother with them. They certainly aren't even close to being my favorite.

And about a million recipes for chili! :-)
