Talk about an only-in-Las Vegas experience: slip into this rendition of Uncle Misha's dacha in a strip mall just a few miles from the Strip, and you may feel like an extra in Gorky Park. The air is thick with smoke and heavy with Russian as expatriates hunch over vodka. Shellacked log walls, piped-in Russian pop music, and doting waitresses in brightly colored costumes further the surreal ambience. The kitchen follows authentic recipes with Streletz's Plate, a colorful pastiche of grilled vegetables with garlic, and Gourmand Duck, a duck fillet with grilled oranges and cherry sauce. The familiar pierogi, borscht, blini, and Stroganoff are tasty.
