Hokkaido Octopus - Hokkaido octopus is softer

The sushi chef said this is Hokkaido octopus, a kind of octopus from Hokkaido. He explained that the Hokkaido octopus was softer and tasted better than other kinds of octopus. He was absolutely right. I found the sushi to be tender and tasty.

A tap-dancing octopus is a relatively new idiomatic expression. The expression is about doing your best. Putting your best foot forward means to do your best.

However, an octopus has eight legs. If you are a tap-dancing octopus, you’re putting your best foot forward eight times. Plus, you’re using a trendy idiom.

If you use that idiom, I wonder if anyone will understand what you’re talking about.
