  To clean octopus, pull of tentacles, remove intestines
  and ink sac. Cut out eyes and beak.  Remove skin and
  rinse well. Place head and tentacles in a pan over low
  heat until it turns deep pink and is tender (about 45
  to 60 minutes)  Drain and when cool enough to handle
  strip off suckers from tentacles if desired. Cut head
  and tentacles into bite-sized pieces and place in a
  bowl.  Add garlic, olive oil, vinegar, salt if
  necessary and pepper to taste.  Mix well, cover and
  leave to marinate in refrigerator for 12 hours before
  using. Stir occasionally.
  
  To serve, lift out of marinade, pile onto a dish,
  garnish with lemon wedges and parsley.  Supply
  cocktail picks for your guests' convenience.
