Brrr! It is so cold here in Brooklyn. 

One of the (very few) upsides of winter is that it's perfect for hosting dinner parties. What could be better than spending a long, leisurely evening in someone's warm, candle-lit home, sharing a cozy meal? Sure, you've still got to put on boots and a coat to get there but I think the trade off is usually worth it. Or, if you'd rather pad around in your bare feet, you could play host yourself and invite your friends over to your place. Either way, it's a win-win. Here are a few filling menu ideas perfect for winter entertaining.
