Non-Smoking Bars

I might be clutching at straws, but is there a decent non-smoking bar in Kunming?

No. Ha.ha.

Thought that would be the answer

Chinese people think that those 'No smoking' signs are just suggestions. I guess they really are.

sorry Jumba, national laws and 'guidelines' are rarely enforced here.

Thanks. I thought so!

There was a guy smoking whilst having a shower at my gym. I saw that for the first time and then got the idea pretty quickly!

Those places that do have smoking and non-smoking sections seem to always arrange things so that it's necessary to walk through the smoking section first.

I've seen that in other countries as well.

Bars and other places of relaxation should never be non smoking.

Wrong! Bars and other places of relaxation should have a smoking section and a non-smoking section.

Regrets if this is off-topic - but Salvador's has a non-smoking restaurant across the street (and upstairs) from "Salvador's 1". The food is somewhat more upscale from the regular fare at Sals 1.

No live music, no DJ, no writhing bodies, and they close way before 2am.
