@Alien. Cycling through Kunming traffic and suffering/witnessing all the irresponsible, selfish and dangerous, or inexperienced and reckless ebike and car drivers can build up some serious pressure/steam. Add to that buses that blow coal black 500api smoke in your face.
We have a popular saying on GoK....Matt is that you?
@marcuschen. Most of the shoppers at Metro are local Chinese. So many locals can get and already have membership cards. But yankee00 has a point. The foreigners and Chinese buy different kinds of things because of cultural preferences.
If you can find the neighborhood broken TV, hot plate repair shop, the guy inside usually has a messy desk with circuit boards and solder. I paid a single lonely kuai for him to solder a wire back on. However, it's not a finesse job, big glob, but my bike light works again.
There are various vegetarian buffets throughout the city. One was inside an office tower with interesting wood patio decor and view. In general, they are cheap, but quite oily.
No results found.
Never gotten sick once at Sals. Their food is TexMex, so yeah, not authentic Mexican food, but pretty authentic as TexMex goes. Burrito wrap has improved a lot. Like the draft beer option now.
If you haven't had dairy products in a while, and do eat here, best forgo the sour cream. Nothing wrong with it, in fact it's the best sour cream in Kunming, but if you've eaten Chinese for month or months with no dairy intake, your system will react to sour cream or probably any liquid dairy product not so well. Maybe that's what happened with nailer and tallamerican.
Update:
It's now 5 working days for regular processing. So I submitted my application a bit before 5pm on a Friday and was told to pick it up next week Friday after 5pm.
Cost is now 400rmb for a single 30 day entry. Or that was what I was charged anyways. There are no posted prices and its cash only with no receipt except for your passport pickup. That's like $65 USD.
You can pay another 150rmb for 2 day or 100rmb for 3 day processing. For 400rmb, they should process it in three days like they used to before, but now you'd pay 500rmb. The office is still like deserted most of the time, so why does it take longer now and cost extra. If you opted for 2 day, thats like $90 usd. All other neighboring countries charge like $25usd.
The rest of and cope review is still good for hours and location.
Far out, less people. Big enough to get lost in. Pretty and quiet near dusk. 20yuan entrance fee.
Like everyone else says, best Indian food in Kunming. They have lunch plates and dinner plates. Show up before 1pm for lunch.
They are on the 4th floor of the half empty shopping mall. Best way is too take the elevator past the KFC around the corner from Starbucks.
Most individual dishes can feed only two hungry guys, so order more if you are starving. Naan order can take care of one only.
Five stars for the food. Go with Yereth's recommendations, plus any vegetable the waitress says is fresh.
Beware that Xue Fu lu is one way, so many taxis have to take a roundabout way to get here.

Posted byYeah, mPRin said. I no longer even look at reviews so don't bother checking out new places.
Kunming in the aftermath of the train station attack
Posted byI went to the train station in Chengdu a couple of years ago. There was so much security you would need a tank. Kunming zhan is a much softer target. No chance the attackers are local.
