Snackbar

Philafoodie heads to the gastro-lab Snackbar and takes a bite of chef Jonathan McDonald’s challenging lounge. And as always Philafoodie brings the pics.

Some of its dishes are ponderous and could leave you deconstructing them for days. A few may even be a little intimidating, such as the Curried Banana (yes, it’s a dessert and, strangely, it works), the Sweet Curried Popcorn (an addictive snack you’ll often find at the bar) and the infamous Adrahan Cheese (it smells like it was aged in the bowels of a wet Egyptian mummy, but it’s delicious). But if you have an open mind and take the time to unpack the flavors and think about how they work together, it could be a rewarding experience.
