New Winter Menu at Snackbar

Joshua Homacki, the young chef of Rittenhouse's tiny-in-size, big-on-imagination boîte Snackbar, has sent along his new winter menu. Plenty of hearty savories for snowy nights make the new list, like braised lamb shoulder with smoked pappardelle and sherry-glazed cipollini onions ($22) and braised beef cheeks with chestnut purée, roasted chestnuts and maple glazed quince ($23).
Smaller plates range from smoked barley with black trumpet mushrooms, 60-degree poached egg and truffle ($11), to Brussels sprouts with baby golden beets, horseradish and cranberries ($9).
A peanut butter terrine with chocolate and banana ice cream finishes you off for $7, or snag the city's best deal on a cheese plate — three artisanal fromages, with all the bells and whistles, for $10.
