Stopped by Snack Taverna after the fun, intelligent show Everything You Touch at the Cherry Lane Theatre about a fashion designer’s life, replete with emaciated leggy models and couture.

Snack Taverna is a welcoming tavern with enthusiastic helpful servers. I had a braised lamb shank; my friend the chicken.

The lamb casserole contained a shank with wild mushrooms and orzo in a cinnamon-scented tomato sauce topped with Kefalotyri cheese and fresh watercress. The pan-seared chicken was seasoned with rosemary and with chickpeas braised endive, golden raisins and olive.  Each dish was were incredibly tasty, nicely seasoned … but slightly over cooked. Something the restaurant could easily rectify.

Still it’s all served in an intimate cozy setting, worth stopping by if you’re in the neighborhood.
