Sam Fox parts ways with Fox Restaurant Concepts. 'Bittersweet'

Sam Fox, one of Arizona's most prolific restaurateurs, announced he has stepped away from his group Fox Restaurant Concepts after nearly three decades. The move will allow Fox to focus on his latest venture, Author & Edit Hospitality, which is responsible for The Global Ambassador Hotel in Phoenix and The Twelve Thirty Club in Nashville.

"Being able to go to work and be really excited and getting to learn a whole new sort of discipline within the hospitality business is something that really excites me." What restaurants are under Fox Restaurant Concepts? The Fox Restaurant Concepts portfolio includes Culinary Dropout, Blanco Cocina + Cantina, The Henry, Dough Bird, Flower Child, Fly Bye, The Arrogant Butcher, The Greene House, Olive & Ivy, Zinburger, Wildflower American Cuisine (not to be confused with Wildflower Bread Company) and Society Swan, as well as Pushing Daisies in Nashville.

Shift Kitchen & Bar – Flagstaff, Arizona

Shift Kitchen & Bar may just change your perspective on what fine dining is….at least fine dining in a burgeoning mountain town. It will certainly demonstrate that a Flagstaff eatery can serve the type of elevated cuisine you would expect in Scottsdale. Shift is definitely a deviation from expectations, a cut above. With menus that change with a shift in seasons, Shift is aptly named. For all the reasons Shift is perfectly named, the one shift I might consider is a shift to a venue with a parking lot. Unless you’re familiar with downtown Flagstaff, you might not find Shift easy to find. Sure, your GPS will tell you “you’ve reached your destination,” but you won’t see any glaring signage confirming that you’re there. Nor will you likely find parking nearby. You may have to walk a while to find its Babbitt Building location.
