A customer had an unexpected dinner companion - when an octopus tried to escape from her seafood bucket.
Ms Liu was having dinner at a hot pot restaurant in Beijing, China, when the live mollusc tried to climb out of the bucket.
A video shows the octopus retreating back into the bucket after its tentacle dipped into the boiling broth.
The octopus was not supposed to be eaten as-is but made a daring escape from a bucket of ingredients waiting to be used.
Hot pot, a traditional Chinese meal, involves diners cooking a variety of ingredients themselves in a pot of boiling broth.
The video was filmed on Jan. 21.
