Forums > Travel Yunnan > Shaxi: great!

tomann has got it, although I didn't find anything harrowing about the bus ride. Anyway, what you need is a bus to Jianchuan; getting off at the little town just before Jianchuan (I can't remember the name either) and getting your mianbaoche there is optimal, but if the bus won't stop or you get mixed up you can ride the extra 10kms. or so to the Jianchuan bus station, then ask for a mianbaoche to Shaxi, which will go back the last 10 kms. and then turn off & take you to Sideng/Shaxi. It's all easier than it sounds.

Amazing the insecurity of posters who can't handle disagreement without either insulting or getting defensive, as if they have to defend themselves alla time.

Magnifico, you should immediately inform some 3-400 million Indian vegetarians, & then dig up some info on how so many Hindus managed to live & grow up over the past couple thousand years.

Another approach, however, might be to figure out specifically what that woman 2 years ago did to her child that didn't work.

I would think that bans on smoking in many environments in most parts of China would encounter similar disapproval by the majority of people, whether one considers it to be a good idea or not.

Many of us who were around in the early 2000's are well aware of just how important John and Cas have been in the development of the local Western-derived local music culture - over the past 13 years there have been others as well, whom I do not mention here by name, despite their significance, simply out of a desire to be brief - but those who have come later and are not all that familiar with this development should understand that the Kunming laowai scene they found on arrival was the product of a lot of people and events that should entire history as we should know it.
I occasionally go to Chiang Mai, and I do not for a moment believe that this story, of music and enthusiasts and good irrascible performers, has come to and end - it's just spreading out.
Stories come to an end, but people are part of a longer phenomenon that does not.

Incomes and social services and education in rural areas, in China as well as in a great many places, are appalling, not in comparison to what they once were, but in comparison to what they could be if the economy and the state worked well to put resources where they are needed.

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.

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.
