I was just warned about my E-Bike being slightly outside the lines of the new designated parking zones. Somehow the chengguan has been granted the power to charge 500 yuan fines for parking scooters anywhere but within the designated zones. As far as I know, that is 2.5 times what they would charge for illegally parked cars. They will often also confiscate your scooter or bike. Get your wenmin face on.
The Lincang Salvador's is run by two of the former managers from the Kunming Salvador's. There are many of the same options on the menu but also lots of local food options and pizza. Location is...

There is still a Salvador's Coffee House in Lincang. In addition, there is some of Yunnan's best local cuisine available in Lincang and the surrounding countryside. There is a beautiful new park in the northern part of the city. There is some decent hiking nearby. Otherwise it is kind of your average sleepy small Chinese city. You can take weekends up in Dali if you are looking for a break from routine.
Flooded farms and draught-stricken farms are equally undesirable. I won't stop fighting for a fair and balanced weather forecast.
Everyone, please sign the petition to change Kunming's weather back to how it used to be. Stand up and fight for the weather we deserve. You have the power to make change happen. Make Weather Forecasts Great Again!

I'm leaving this review for one of my staff. She just return from Dali and fell in love with this little restaurant in Dali. Very nice owners cooking up delicious and healthy Chinese cuisine with an open kitchen and local "organic" ingredients. I'll have to try it out myself next time.
If you're looking for a slightly higher end place serving local foods in a nice outdoor atmosphere, you'll dig this place
I'm disappointed in myself for even considering giving this place another chance. I wanted to give my 4-month old a chance to see some live animals and I was sure that there was no way that the Kunming Zoo was as bad as it was 15 years ago. Somehow it was worse. It's disgraceful that with all of the changes that this city has undergone in the last two decades that this zoo still lacks any sense of decency or morality.
At nailer and tallamerican, I'm sorry to hear about your recent experiences. We wash everything with purified water and make all of our food fresh daily from whole ingredients in order to avoid any problems. We will review our procedures to assure that we continue to provide the safest and healthiest menu options possible. I hope you'll give us another try and I'd be happy to buy you a coffee if you are around any morning.
@GoKunming, it would be nice if there was a zero star option for reviews so that business owners can contribute without having to rate ourselves. I kind of feel like a d-bag giving myself stars 1-5. For some reason I settled on 4 as the least douchey ;).
the chorizo alone is worth 5 stars

Fundraiser: Helping out with impossible medical bills
Posted byI'm sorry to those who are only just now learning about Liping's passing. It was amazing what everyone did in Kunming and beyond to come to her aid. She left behind a fund in her name to help other's with unaffordable medical expenses. 4000 from this fund has been pledged to Guo Conglan.
We will have a fundraising box up in Salvador's for those who wish to donate. In addition to the 4000 from Liping's fund, we will match any donations we receive up to a total of 4000. Let's get the rest of Guo Conlan's bills covered!
