Is there a good reason or a bad reason why there is not Kunming map on gokunming? Or is there one but the guy who designed the site has hidden it so that I can't find it? Seems to me there used to be one.
Searches for working maps online takes more time than I've got.
I've seen troublesome foreigners who rent and those who are not troublesome - my guess is that most landlords who respond thgis way have either had bad experiences with foreigners, or have had no experiences with foreigners and simply don't want to take a chance on an unfamiliar arrangement. Might seem like continuation of fairly well-documented historical Chinese xenophobia, but the problem is that lack of experience of things unfamiliar leads to xenophobia and xenophobia leads to limitations on experience. This is not the same as racism, though it can accompany it. I'm foreign and I've had my landlady for many years and we get along fine.

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.
