Description
This BYO Brighton Beach staple remains one of the city’s finest restaurants for top-notch, affordable Central Asian fare. Kashkar in particular is a halal Uzbek Uighur restaurant, though the venue’s name refers to the city in China’s Xinjiang province, where the predominantly Muslim Uyghurs face continued persecution — and possibly genocide. Menu highlights include a tart, Korean Uzbek-style carrot salad; stretchy lagman noodles in a spiced, vegetable-laced meat broth; and samsa, flaky pastries filled with lamb.
