"Nurlan is among our top choices for Uyghur food, especially laghman and meat skewers. The former comes with fried fatty beef and bouncy, chewy noodles that you won’t want to stop slurping. Order the slightly sweet saffron tea, and add as many $3 skewers as your appetite can handle (but skip the onion-and-lamb samsa). If you can't choose between dining in among the tapestries, crochet tablecloths and ceramics, or taking your food to the Queens Botanical Garden across the street, just let the weather decide.
