Russian Restaurant in Kunming - yes/no?

Beruga (6 posts) • 0

Hello everyone,

next week I want to present my girlfriend (who is Russian) a little surprise, and for that I´m planning to invite her to a nice restaurant to provide her a comfortable atmosphere. Now my first idea was a Russian restaurant, because living in China, she´s really missing food from her home country.

All I could find on the internet about Russian Restaurants in Kunming was the Yalishanda Russian Restaurant 亚历山大俄罗斯餐厅, which - as it turned out - was closed a while ago. Besides that, I wasn´t able to find further Russian restaurants here.

If somebody has some information about whether there is another one and where, I would be really thankful for the advice!

Thanks in advance,

路易

I went to this restaurant about 6 months ago. They even have a picture of Putin on the wall. Investigate before you take her there because like all western restaurants in China, it is Chinese + Russian.

Thanks guys, but as mentioned above, this restaurant has closed meanwhile, which is why I´m looking for other Russian restaurants.

Cook yourself. Otherwise, you will most probably give her the creeps by ordering some misunderstood Russian-Chinese dish. :)

@Beruga - Brother, you're a beautiful human being for doing this for your girlfriend. Chivalry lives, by god!

Having said that, I have a hunch that Russian food is even more rare than authentic Indian food, in Kunming. (And, I hear the Indian food around here is really crummy.) Viajante, may have pegged it. You may need to do it yourself. Here's a start for you.

@Shyam, excellant authentic Indian food at Saramati Indian Restuarant on Linyu road in shopping center on right side just past panlong river. Check the reviews.

Back to topic, please? ;-)

No Indian food, no self-cooking. I got a really good idea, and that sort of requires a restaurant

Sorry to unintentionally lead things astray, Beruga. (And, thanks for the tip on Saramati, folks!)

Good luck on the Elousi de cai!
