Hi,
Does anyone know where to find baozaifan in kunming? Sorry I don't know the characters. Clay pot rice. Some people call it shagoufan.
I have seen it and enjoyed it an small towns around Yunnan and in Guiyang, but yet to see it here in Kunming.
Here is a description:
"Bao Zai Fan is rice that is cooked in a Sha Guo (Clay Pot). It is one of the lunches I used to have when I went to high school and college in China. Sometimes people might even add peanuts, or taro cubes to the rice to add a different flavor to it. Some people love rice in a clay pot, because they love the crispy part at the bottom of the pot."
Kind of like Chinese bibimbap.
I know many people "know" where to get it in Kunming. Could anyone actually tell me where? I quite like this dish.
Sha Guo Fan - 砂锅饭 - I had some good clay pot rice in Mengzi on Zao Jie - Morning Street
yeah, i have had it in a few places outside of kunming. Must exist here in Kunming somewhere.
Just Googled it and it looks like one of the dishes served at a small fast food like restaurant on the first floor of a tall building on the south-west corner of Xuefu Lu + Jianshe Lu. It's not as garnished as the dish in the pics, but has Yunnan meat, small vegetables and at the bottom, diced potatoes.
oh cool. i will have to go take a look. thanks
I had one at Halfway House a while back. It was alright, but pricy.

It's very good and common in Guangdong province, not that the restaurants that pass themselves off for Guangdong in Kunming will have it. Also, Korean restaurants should have a stone pot version if you want to try that.
My favorite is the copper pot potato rice!
