Welcome to bocconcini
[bohk-kohn-CHEE-nee], mainlinetoday.com’s first-ever dining blog dedicated to local culinary wonders and the movers and shakers behind them. Along with dishing on the dining scene, I’ll be serving up the scoop on local brewmeisters and winemakers. For those not up on their Italian phraseology, bocconcini are petite nuggets of fresh mozzarella packed in whey or water, with a spongy texture and a knack for absorbing any flavor they mingle with. Bocconcini also translates to “mouthful,” a term used by Italians to describe the appetizing appeal of many dishes—and a fitting name for this blog. So without further ado, “Mangia!”
