@tiger: this syndrome is, unfortunately, fairly prevalent.
@atwilden: strike them smartly about the head and shoulders if this comes up again.
@atwilden: I know this kind of racist attitude exists, believe me - I meant has anybody experienced this in Kunming from a 'White' person.
@Serrure: "...being told by some white guys that I shouldn't date Asians cause that's a disgrace for the white race".
Hearing this makes me want to throw up, or becoming uncharacteristically and uncontrollably violent. I seriously hope that any such white guys in Kunming return to the spaces under the rocks from which they originally emerged as soon as possible, and stop breathing. I have heard racist-tinged comments, but I have never heard anybody say this kind of sh#t in 10&1/2 years here and I hope there's not much of it. Maybe I live in some kind of fantasy house without windows, but has anybody else heard this, personally?
@coco1: perhaps direct contacts are the best kind, avoids that scraps-passed-down-from-the-high-table syndrome.
Amazing how obsessed some people are with crazy.laowai/tommann/mmkunmimgteacher/latataille. Seems to indicate a major reason why such people write in these forums.
Is this useful to anybody? Don't get me wrong, folks, as far as I'm concerned you can obsess about anything you want to, it's just a shame that you can't focus on something more useful to the rest of us. Also, I think you're bent.
No results found.
Not quite what you'd call a jumping place, but not bad at all for rather standard US-type meals, not overly expensive, and with a really good salad bar that's cheap, or free with most dinner dishes after 5:30PM. You can get a bottle of beer or even wine if you really want to, but I've never seen anybody do it - maybe that's just to take out. Chinese Christian run, and they hire people with physical disadvantages, who are pleasant and helpful. Frequented by foreign (mostly North American) Christians and Chinese Christians - was started by a Canadian couple associated with Bless China (previously, Project Grace), who are no longer here, but no religious pressure or any of that. Steaks are nothing special, and I avoid the Korean dishes, which I've had a few times but which did not impress me.
As a shop and bakery, it's very good bread at reasonable prices, of various kinds (Y18 for a good multigrain loaf that certainly weighs well over a pound. Other stuff too, like granola and oatmeal that is local, as well as imported things, including American cornflakes and so forth, which some people seem to require.
Large portions, seriously so with the pizza, which is Brooklyn/American style, I guess. Convivial, conversational, good place to drink with good folks on both sides of the bar, especially after about 9PM.
Too bourgeois.
Really good pizza and steaks. The wine machine fuddles me when I'm a bit fuddled, & seems unnecessary. Good folks on both sides of the bar.
Ain't no flies on Salvador's.
