"From the piles of steaming hot hand-pulled noodles, to the pristine floral tablecloths soon to be chilli oil-stained, everything at Etles comes from a husband and wife duo. This living room of an Uyghur restaurant in Walthamstow, complete with two-tone walls, lacy curtains, and a chintzy chandelier, suits all kinds of situations. But given the warm hospitality, we always want to eat here as a family—relatives or not. This spot prides itself on feeling like a home away from home." - rianne shlebak
