Don't tell nobody nuthin.
I wouldn't worry too much about Mandalay, nobody will be after you as a foreigner.
Depends on where you're going, but at least to Dali you can buy a ticket at the station and won't have to wait more than maybe an hour for your bus.
Sorry I can't help you for the rest of it, and I've never heard of the 0543 bus.
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.

Lijiang vendors strike, protesting old town entry fee
发布者49.9% of what? Are you talking about UN programs sucking up money? I don't think that's really the nature of the problem.
National environmental audit comes to Yunnan
发布者Probably needed, but I hope these guys will pay close attention to exactly what is or is not going on at present and not just (justifiably, perhaps) point fingers to past mistakes, corruption or whatever. Officials should indeed be made to take responsibility for their actions or inactions, but the important question is always: "Okay, so what do we do next?"
