"I for one think it's a sad day whenever Starbucks opens in a new city. It'd better if they stayed away."
My thoughts exactly.

"Even Yunnan beans are exported to Seattle, roasted, and exported back to China."
Ahhhh, wonderful. Another good reason not to go to starbucks.
Indeed Laotou, A sign would be welcome. The last thing I want after a nice breakfast is to have to face a pile of steaming bear sized craps blocking the only loo available.
Quite used to the toilet paper problem, lots of time spent in India...
Laotou, I'm talking about the public toilets around Wenlin Jie I often have to use these and every time I do at least half the cubicles are full off piles of unflushed shit.
Most of the things I moan about in China are just petty annoyances really, but not flushing shit away??!!! It is pretty rank.
Oh yeah, it's an incredible country and the people are simply the most urbane, charming, and honest that I've ever encountered.
Odd then that none of them seem able to flush away their shits in the public toilet. What is that all about?
No results found.
I've been eating here regularly for a year now and my opinion of it keeps getting better. The staff and owners are lovely welcoming people, and the food is excellent.
It's the only Chinese restaurant in Kunming where I can be confident that I'm not ingesting large amounts of agricultural poison along with my food.
Go there. Often.
I'm afraid that I'm the problem. I'm not the boss, but I bake the bread.
I'm quite inconsistent and unreliable.
The thing is, I don't do the same things everyday and get the bread out at the same time everyday. I understand the danger in this, but I can't stop trying new things. Often, those experiments fail, or go slower than I hoped. But I am learning from them.
I'm trying to organise something so that hopefully, soon, things will settle into a routine.
Please bear with me.
Proper cool.
Hard to think of a reason not to give Dune a five star review. The owners are very friendly and provide excellent service, as do the staff.
The noodles are decent, and give one a good impression of the kitchen; I won't be afraid to sample other dishes on the menu.
The main event though is the beer selection, which is one of the best in town.
A great spot to sit in the afternoon sun sipping a good beer.
I am a great lover of Indian food, so it is with a heavy heart that I see people here rate this place. In short, the food is very bad. To sell it as "authentic Indian cuisine" is poor.
Last time I went I wrote a note offering to teach the chefs some recipes that I know are very good. I saw the staff throw my note in a bin. Not cool.

Posted byI had some Bamboo rat on a trip down to Banna over the holiday. It made a delicious broth, though I reckon they'd caught a racing rat because there wasn't much meat to speak of.
