no idea how AlPage can have been here 6 years without seeing a Ferrari! Either he/she lives in a really shitty part of town and never leaves it, or he/she is very unobservant, or he/she doesn't recognize the Ferrari's s/he sees. I would say I see or hear one at least once a week.
Blockbusters can be good too! But thanks for the recommendations. Can you give us an idea of what they are about?
Mickey - you don't have to visit this website and read these forums. If the complaining bothers you that much (though I don't know why it would), stop checking GK. You certainly won't stop it by complaining about the complaining!
'It would be like a Chinese person moving to England, and insisting on special Chinese food, special Chinese clothes, special Chinese vendors, etc.' That is EXACTLY what many of them do. And it's not a problem.
2 hours in McDonald's, 2 hours in KFC! ;) You may be able to buy tickets at the desk, but of course don't expect a good deal, the internet is where to book cheaper flights.

a very pleasant park with a tall pagoda you can climb and take photos of the city if you wish. Roses in summer, blossom in spring, nice lawn to sit on, bbq areas.
Recently the food seems to be better. Decent steak at a decent price, decent pizza, some decent wine, and the music is more suitable these days (Rammenstein wasn't the right mood music for Cantina)!
Had lunch - grilled chicken on top of mashed cuttlefish and a salad. The chicken was tasty and well cooked, and there was plenty of meat/fish to fill up even a hungry person. The salad was overdressed and nothing special - I won't order one next time. The service is a decent imitation of what you might find in the west. A large menu of food and drink. A nice civilised place to go for food or drink, but some of the dishes (i.e. the steaks) are very pricey. You could easily spend 300rmb+ per person here. Equally, it is possible to have lunch for under 60rmb per person (as we did). Warning - the bottle of water on each table costs an eye watering 48rmb! Don't be a sucker by opening it!
Went for a spot of lunch. Best pizza I've had in Kunming by some distance. In fact, one of the best pizzas I've ever had - quality ingredients, thin base, cooked to perfection. Sashimi salmon tasted very fresh and was well presented. The drinks are expensive, and one of the waiters was letting the side down by being a bit scruffy and impolite (hence not 5 stars), but definitely go and try the pizza.
Not bad. Pizza base was a little thick for my taste. Great selection of craft beers in the fridge, a few beers on tap, and well priced mixed drinks and cocktails. Staff were pleasant. A 14" pizza is the perfect size for two people, and very reasonably priced at 45-70RMB. Beware that the English menu, whilst written in perfect English, is not necessarily accurate. I ordered the 'local one' pizza expecting pepperoni and mango but got neither. The waitress explained that was a mistake on the menu. Would be nice if the menu corresponded with what you get on the plate! Hopefully this will get sorted.
