Can anyone recommend a restaurant in Kunming that offers something a little different, a little exotic, so to speak? I want to write an article, but I think I have exhausted noodles haha.

Dan, you nailed it. Thanks!

Haha great, I know how to get there. Going there tonight! Thanks again, Dan.

My pleasure, I've been three times and have always managed to find at least one new and tasty dish. Last time I went I had something called 虫草花, which is a type of wild-picked fungus with great mouthfeel. Bamboo rat not good, imo. Deer was pretty good if you don't have anything against eating Bambi. I think I saw last time that they have wild boar, which I'm going to get next time because it's been very good when I've had it down in Jinghong. A big selection of fresh and intensely flavored vegetables. Don't forget the soup bar.

Dan, I ate there tonight. It was great! I had worms, some tree bark, a root soup, and okra! I was very happy and satisfied. Thanks again!
