I've totally had it the last few weeks too. I seem to get it here every year about this time. I think it's pine pollen but I don't know. Usually gone by the end of this month. Friend now has me started on Chinese meds... Wumei Wan (乌梅丸) and Cangerzi (苍耳子). Only just starting, so not sure how effective yet. Will try to keep updates.
First local avocados of the season just came in. We're selling them at Salvador's for 10rmb each. We've also got a guacamole special kickin' today. Try with the nachos...
Tonight at 7pm there will be another Green Drinks meeting at Chapter One. If you're interested in or involved in non-profit or development work in Yunnan, this forum provides an opportunity to network with others in the field. Hope to see you there.
Shaxi is a pretty awesome place, especially if you like hiking and want a beautiful rural experience. www.teahorse.com. The owner of the guesthouse who runs this website speaks great English too.
what a shit show, eh? big thanks to gokunming and all of you for making this site a reliable place to get reasonable information. you've done a great job.
for now, both salvador's coffee house and mosaic bistro are still open. we have also put our meituan shop back up online for those of you at home wondering if you should go outside or not.
Hey everyone, we were trying to organize another fundraiser this year for December 8th, but it has now been cancelled. We will try to organize another one after the holidays. Cheers
Hey all, the local farm we work with has organic Roma tomatoes in season now and if you want to pick some up we will have them available at Salvador's for 12 yuan per 500 grams. We'll also be using them in our dishes while available. Stop by if you're interested. We also still have locally soured organic yogurt, coffee and now quinoa if you are looking for some other groceries to add on. Cheers
I'm leaving this review for one of my staff. She just return from Dali and fell in love with this little restaurant in Dali. Very nice owners cooking up delicious and healthy Chinese cuisine with an open kitchen and local "organic" ingredients. I'll have to try it out myself next time.
I'm disappointed in myself for even considering giving this place another chance. I wanted to give my 4-month old a chance to see some live animals and I was sure that there was no way that the Kunming Zoo was as bad as it was 15 years ago. Somehow it was worse. It's disgraceful that with all of the changes that this city has undergone in the last two decades that this zoo still lacks any sense of decency or morality.
At nailer and tallamerican, I'm sorry to hear about your recent experiences. We wash everything with purified water and make all of our food fresh daily from whole ingredients in order to avoid any problems. We will review our procedures to assure that we continue to provide the safest and healthiest menu options possible. I hope you'll give us another try and I'd be happy to buy you a coffee if you are around any morning.
@GoKunming, it would be nice if there was a zero star option for reviews so that business owners can contribute without having to rate ourselves. I kind of feel like a d-bag giving myself stars 1-5. For some reason I settled on 4 as the least douchey ;).
