Towne Unveils New Winter Menu

Is it really winter? Depends on the day. Regardless, Towne Stove and Spirits culinary director Lydia Shire and executive chef Mario Capone have unveiled their new winter menu. New dishes include appetizers like shrimp and sweet potato tempura with citrus ponzu, and in the newly added "winter comfort" section you'll find pork schnitzel with scallion and green garlic mashed potatoes and duck confit with white cheddar polenta. Seafood options include salmon crisp with key lime and palm sugar gastrique and Okinawa yam, and because vegetables are the new meat, you can order a cauliflower steak side. For dessert, there's tangerine cheesecake. Hopefully the menu will still apply to the new seasons-within-seasons we're experiencing, such as Bizzaro Spring and Fall II.
