Forums > Living in Kunming > China's Wealthy fleeing China
@tallamerican. so true, some real estate brokers freak out when the Chinese client brings in $450,000 in cash to closing. One brokerage had to buy a safe for their office.

@darkone264. I didn't attend the Canadian public school system, so please enlighten me on Canada indoctrination vs China indoctrination.

I can list five cities I've lived in that match that nonspecific foreign environment. Vancouver, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, and Austin. I'm sure many can list more.

萨尔瓦多咖啡馆
Never gotten sick once at Sals. Their food is TexMex, so yeah, not authentic Mexican food, but pretty authentic as TexMex goes. Burrito wrap has improved a lot. Like the draft beer option now.
If you haven't had dairy products in a while, and do eat here, best forgo the sour cream. Nothing wrong with it, in fact it's the best sour cream in Kunming, but if you've eaten Chinese for month or months with no dairy intake, your system will react to sour cream or probably any liquid dairy product not so well. Maybe that's what happened with nailer and tallamerican.

越南社会主义共和国驻昆明总领事馆
Update:
It's now 5 working days for regular processing. So I submitted my application a bit before 5pm on a Friday and was told to pick it up next week Friday after 5pm.
Cost is now 400rmb for a single 30 day entry. Or that was what I was charged anyways. There are no posted prices and its cash only with no receipt except for your passport pickup. That's like $65 USD.
You can pay another 150rmb for 2 day or 100rmb for 3 day processing. For 400rmb, they should process it in three days like they used to before, but now you'd pay 500rmb. The office is still like deserted most of the time, so why does it take longer now and cost extra. If you opted for 2 day, thats like $90 usd. All other neighboring countries charge like $25usd.
The rest of and cope review is still good for hours and location.

黑龙潭公园
Far out, less people. Big enough to get lost in. Pretty and quiet near dusk. 20yuan entrance fee.

印度特菜
Like everyone else says, best Indian food in Kunming. They have lunch plates and dinner plates. Show up before 1pm for lunch.
They are on the 4th floor of the half empty shopping mall. Best way is too take the elevator past the KFC around the corner from Starbucks.
Most individual dishes can feed only two hungry guys, so order more if you are starving. Naan order can take care of one only.

土生食馆
Five stars for the food. Go with Yereth's recommendations, plus any vegetable the waitress says is fresh.
Beware that Xue Fu lu is one way, so many taxis have to take a roundabout way to get here.

发布者Sounds interesting given the West on East and vice versa. Hopefully it won't just all be landscapes but with mixes of city/town life.

Yunnan's capital scrambles as 'Civilized Kunming' audit looms
发布者Well, they did fix a lot of potholes and repaved whole streets that were all cracks, so some permanent good did come of this.
