The vinaigrette was pretty tasty and I enjoyed that you could actually taste the raspberry. A quarter of the vinaigrette would easily be enough for the whole recipe. I found the cuttlefish too acidic, I'd cut the lime in half. I'd also increase the amount of cuttlefish. My rating is based on the recipe as printed. A couple of tweaks could make this much better.
