NPR takes a closer look at Russian zakuski, the hospitality-driven tradition that pairs a table full of "small bites" with copious amounts of vodka, and its microphones visit a zakuski thrown by the parents of Bonnie Morales, whose much-anticipated Russian restaurant Kachka will open later this spring. Morales' father Slava Frumkin talks about the practicality of keeping zakuski on-hand, and how the upcoming restaurant speaks to his Belarusian roots: "It's the whole family history."
