Russian Tea Time

Editorial Review

Old-school charm oozes from the furnishings in this Uzbekistani pre-theatre restaurant. A surprise vegetarian feast for the adventurous awaits. Russian beet-based favorites like borscht are abundant on the menu, and the pelmeni dumplings are not to be missed. Wash it all down with an $11 vodka flight served with tiny noshes to use as chasers. Cheer "Vashe zdorovie!" ("Your health!") and watch the staff's eyes light up. Or stop in for afternoon tea service.
