2024 Is the Year of the Snack | Eater Portland

"Benedict’s new cocktail bar, the Love Shack, will operate without a formal food menu and instead rely on carts rolling through the space offering single-person snacks — two or three bites each — such as banh mi mini-croissants, crab dumplings, pickled onion rings, and caviar-topped brioche waffles. The items are specifically designed to be low-commitment and adaptable for individuals or groups, nearly all priced under $10 (many in the $3–$4 range), and the roving-cart service model reduces labor by passing bites directly to tables — "You sit down, you get your splash of Champagne, and boom, the cart is next to your table." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
