@Tonyaod: I think you are right, BK will have problems down the road. For me, the nostalgia is gone, or actually was never there.

The high price of beef in Kunming has caused me to switch to alternative meats at home. I'd guess BK may have decided for a smaller patty for a greater margin. At best, BK can hope all its customers have switched from McD's and there is no increase in demand to push the cost of the hamburg up.

Not being a McD's customer, I was unaware, and surprised to learn, BK's prices are significantly higher.

I'm gonna gook me a 'double double' (good food) and have some potato chips with it (bad food). Best to keep a balance between good and evil.

@mm: You are suggesting a cookbook. Fine. I guess there just isn't extant a set of Gastronomic "objective principles."

I am not interested enough to buy, $50, then wade through a 1,200 page cook book.

@mm: There you go again. I did not say Gastronomy is not a a field of study. Do you think I am stupid? People study all sorts of stuff.

I am asking you for a source of Gastronomic ""objective principles."

Matt: So what? Self evident merely means folks read a bunch of food stuff and their heads grow in size.

You claim there are "objective principles." What are they?

Mei Mei Cafe is great!

Orchid, and her sister, run a great place. Good food, lots of free advice on where to go and how to get there. Want a tour, need a car, a ticket? See Orchid, she's the tall beautiful lady.

Every winter since 2004 I've headed south to Banna. First stop is Mei Mei's. Just tell the taxi driver "Mei Mei Cafe" and in about 10 minutes you are there.

Now, if they just had T-Shirts

Good for quality, but pricey, hand tools.

Be aware they will push whatever they are selling. Some of the staff have no idea about the technical side of appliances.

I went there to buy a stove. I repeatedly told them I would be using bottled gas. They sold me a stove. When I went to my local gas guy, I learned there are at least three kinds of gas sold. Luckily, B&Q did not deliver as promised. I went back to the store and discovered they had sold me a stove they needed to be hooked up to the gas main. I got my money back.

The sales lady was almost in tears, 没有问题！I don't know if it a safety or design issue, but I would think B&Q would know and care.

Last week had an 8:45am flight.

Subway starts at 9am. I have no idea where to catch an airport express bus. Eight taxis refused to go to the airport. After almost an hour standing on Beijing Lu took a black taxi, this dude drives slower than my mother, 120 yuan.

Flight back was delayed so I learned the subway stops running at 6:10pm.

Getting a taxi back was easy, more taxis than customers. Taxi was 87 yuan including 1o yuan toll, airport to Beichen area. Yes, he took a longer route than necessary.

Kunming imagines being a gateway for international travelers. New airport but hard to get to and from it.

World Class Airport, NOT!

Tonight "Peacock", a performance by Yang Liping (杨丽萍), to begin her world tour, 8pm, 100-1680 yuan at Yunna Haigeng Auditorium.

Saw this lady perform at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium, in California, in 1995. Quite a good and interesting show.

I'm going to try to make it.

Not so good. Kimchi had a very sour taste. Other food was nothing to brag about. I don't think I would go back.
