Alaskan food with Italian flavor is In Bocca Al Lupo’s specialty and chef Beau Schooler’s honors keep rolling in with yet another Best Chef semifinalist nomination. Diners – whether they come dressed to impress or in fishing garb – are taken by the fare with influences of Filipino and Alaska Native culture.
Patrons describe the cauliflower appetizer with hot honey and blue cheese as a “chef’s kiss.” Thunderdome is “carb heaven,” a dome of bread with a pile of cloud-like fluffy butter. And they praise the lemon tart that has just the right amount of sweet and sour and a perfect crust.
