"Whether you come for zakuski happy hour or a full dinner, Kachka’s creative Slavic menu delights beyond the expected meat-and-potatoes stereotype: try Herring Under a Fur Coat (a molded beet-potato-herring salad), Siberian pelmeni, meat or eggplant skewers, rabbit in a clay pot, or pork loin schnitzel. The convivial, family-style atmosphere is reinforced by a mock cottage exterior inspired by the owner’s great-grandparents’ cottage, and for groups the pre-ordered Plov Party—a long-cooked Uzbekistan duck-and-garlic feast—makes a celebratory communal meal; wash it down with horseradish-infused vodka made at Kachka’s nearby distillery." - Hannah Wallace
