I wish I had bear hands. Seriously though, they don't even give a shit about each other, so I imagine that any "Please would you mind turning the volume down a little" requests will be met with blank stares at best.
I just spent the whole morning listening to the next door neighbour's kids shouting silly insults at me (they heard me answering a phone call and so spent the next 30 minutes shouting stupid laowai and other rubbish).
Of course there was no attempt by the parents to shut them up.
Seeing as there are a few random mtb info threads scattered around I thought I would start a final difinitive one and link the other threads to it. Lets try to keep all the mtb related info and discussion on one thread to save confusion.
If you're looking for route info then ask here, if you want to ride and fancy some company, post on here.
Cheers all, hope you see you out on the trails soon.
"Therefore, I feel that I must actually, and regrettably, discourage people from going to Ximeng, unless you have access to a car and local area knowledge. If you do have these things, however, Ximeng can be amazing, just like many other remote, off-the-beaten-track parts of China"
Curiosity, imagination, and confidence will suffice otherwise.
I've been eating here regularly for a year now and my opinion of it keeps getting better. The staff and owners are lovely welcoming people, and the food is excellent.
It's the only Chinese restaurant in Kunming where I can be confident that I'm not ingesting large amounts of agricultural poison along with my food.
I'm afraid that I'm the problem. I'm not the boss, but I bake the bread.
I'm quite inconsistent and unreliable.
The thing is, I don't do the same things everyday and get the bread out at the same time everyday. I understand the danger in this, but I can't stop trying new things. Often, those experiments fail, or go slower than I hoped. But I am learning from them.
I'm trying to organise something so that hopefully, soon, things will settle into a routine.
I am a great lover of Indian food, so it is with a heavy heart that I see people here rate this place. In short, the food is very bad. To sell it as "authentic Indian cuisine" is poor.
Last time I went I wrote a note offering to teach the chefs some recipes that I know are very good. I saw the staff throw my note in a bin. Not cool.
