Molasses seems to be everywhere, easier to buy than brown sugar. Walmart has it as well as Carrefour. Also can probably find it where ever your local farmers market is.
Waffle maker is available from Taobao or Amazon.cn I got a Philips brand from Amazon.cn, came with waffle, grill, and sandwich plates (switchable). Very happy with it!
It's a long trip by land, made longer by the fact that they're doing road work on the way to Dali. I usually take the night bus which is about a 14 hour journey right now. Tickets are about ¥200 and you leave from the west long distance bus station near majie.
The fast way is to fly up there. Takes about 50 minutes.
The Compass Cafe serves up the best western breakfast I've ever had in China. And the Noah Inn has nice clean rooms if you need a place to stay.
Would like to see an actual Starbucks store (or five of them) here in Kunming...Unless I'm mistaken this article is about supply, not retail sale (sigh). Not crazy about Starbucks actual coffee, but their candy coffee's (otherwise known as Frappuccinos) are lovely!
