Wet market is a type of food market, it's where locals (and many foreigners too) go to buy their vegetables and meat. They have less of hygiene than supermarkets, but the food is generally fresher as it is sold by the farmers or people close to them in the production chain.

If you haven't yet, you should visit them just for the experience.

One thing we haven't been able to do properly, is (Swedish style) meat balls.

I don't know if it's the meat (from wet market) or what, but the meat-dough always turns up somehow wet. Tried with pork and beef.

In restaurants you sometimes see huge meatballs which get closer and are sometimes actually delicious.

I can do it in my home country, just frying the balls on a pan, but something goes wrong here, and it only works if deep fried in oil. Then it is not the same.

Anyone been able to get it right at home?

Speaking of Metro, I have learned (to disbelief of some visiting foreigners) that in China their business model is not towards consumers but for restaurants and others in the profession.

My wife tried to go shopping in Kunming Metro, and was turned back due to not having a business card.

Anyone know otherwise?

My biggest concern about buying meat is the non-existent cold storage in the production chain - or at least in the food markets.

But I trust my wife (a local) with groceries, I just report what I like and not like to eat (after trying) so she knows to avoid it in future. We do eat pork almost daily, chicken or duck once a week.

I have talked about these projects with some Chinese, and their view seems to always be that the developer has offered them one or two apartments, but they want more.

Now, I have no reason to believe that this is the whole truth.

These Chinese I've talked to, admit so much that the apartments given to farmers are nowhere as finished as those going to sales (I don't mean furniture and such extra, but basically all interior work).

I can well imagine something like this conveniently left out of paperwork without the farmers knowing to ask for it.

The text is really not clear about that point. Schengen visa does indeed allow you to travel freely within the Schengen area, but entering the Schengen area is not that simple.

Generally you are required to apply for visa via the consulate of country of entry to Schengen area. If you fly from Kunming to Paris, you may have to apply Schengen visa from French consulate - Czech or other countries' consulates may refuse the application.

Flight ticket reservations (round-trip China-Europe-China) are usually required, so they see what your entry point is. In above example, Czech immigration probably does not want to take responsibility if you fly to France and then decide to stay there as illegal immigrant.

But if your flight ticket allows cancellation and changing the point of entry after you get the visa, you are probably fine. Though I would not be surprised if there are questions on arrival passport check.

Has a foreigner team ever participated in the race in Kunming? What would it take to get one started for coming years?
