"There's no shortage of traditional Italian food in Boston, but if you're on the hunt for some good focaccia then there's actually a sit-down pasta restaurant you need to visit: Fox & The Knife. Located right next to the Broadway T stop in South Boston, Fox & The Knife is a traditional Italian restaurant with lots of modern flair. There's moody signs and seasonal cocktails, but also classic dishes like milanese di maiale, or crispy pork milanese, and spaghetti con vongole."
"The highlight, however, is the taleggio stuffed focaccia, which consists of a warm handmade bread loaded with mozzarella, rosemary, and olive oil. The appetizer is the brainchild of chef and owner Karen Akunowicz, who was recognized with a James Beard award in 2018. Having previously lived in Modena, Italy, Akunowicz knew that there were some dishes she just had to have on the Fox & The Knife menu, and focaccia di recco was one of them."
Fox & The Knife is a sit-down pasta restaurant located next to the Broadway T stop in South Boston that blends traditional Italian fare with modern touches and moody ambiance. The signature appetizer is a taleggio-stuffed focaccia baked with mozzarella, rosemary, and olive oil, created by chef-owner Karen Akunowicz, a 2018 James Beard award recipient who lived in Modena. The focaccia is baked in a pie pan with extra cheese for an intense pull-apart experience and earned a Bib Gourmand recommendation. Other standout dishes include broccoli alla griglia, raviolo carbonara, wild boar tagliatelle Bolognese, and inventive preparations with goat butter and brown butter.
