I'm pretty sure I tried a Walls brand rum raisin pint from Walmart. It tasted like a chemical factory. That kept me away from trying anymore till now.
Haagen is a clear winner, but coming from the USA, it sells for 3x the price, so I mentally can't get over the price disparity. It's actually near the same price as the Haagen Daz store and more expensive than Dairy Queen, so I'd rather get those.
Not liked any of the Fine Foods stuff I have tried from Metro. I do think I saw FF ice cream
Haigeng is very nice now and free. Start from west entrance and just keep walking or cycling (no ebikes or cars). Nice views on a clear day. Big contrast from Beijing.
I want to donate money to help Nepal recover. I prefer to do this by dropping some rmb in a box or jar locally. Better yet raffles or live music charity events. Any coming up?
Are we talking about the 10year tourist or business China visa for US passport holders? If so, I've not heard anyone get more than 60 days per stay. Anyone have information saying 90 or 180 days per stay is possible?
I rode across that bridge. It's going to be a pain to rebuild since it's isolated from any other infrastructure. Also, pretty sure there isn't a detour besides backtracking many hours.
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.
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.
