Dudeson, all food has bacteria. The bacteria in different places is often different. If you live in a place for awhile you're body will adjust to take care of the formerly-unfamiliar bacteria. It won't take a generation.
You folks try to enjoy life.

Jopasny, welcome to Kunming and don't worry about all these food alarmists, you'll be fine - most people in China live quite a long time, no matter where they happen to be born. You might be surprised to hear Chinese parents thinking about sending their kids to the US for education worry over the possibility that they'll get shot on the street. For myself I eat wherever I want, buy food in the market, boil city water to drink, etc. - just like most people here do. I'm only very rarely sick, and when it's a food thing (once a year?) it never lasts longer than maybe 48 hours.
Seems to me a lot of foreigners, perhaps mostly newbies here, are really AFRAID of ordinary life in Kunming &/or China.
You would hire a driver for what?
Food safety paranoia - "after 3 years...I've had enough Chinese food" - wow.
No results found.
Not quite what you'd call a jumping place, but not bad at all for rather standard US-type meals, not overly expensive, and with a really good salad bar that's cheap, or free with most dinner dishes after 5:30PM. You can get a bottle of beer or even wine if you really want to, but I've never seen anybody do it - maybe that's just to take out. Chinese Christian run, and they hire people with physical disadvantages, who are pleasant and helpful. Frequented by foreign (mostly North American) Christians and Chinese Christians - was started by a Canadian couple associated with Bless China (previously, Project Grace), who are no longer here, but no religious pressure or any of that. Steaks are nothing special, and I avoid the Korean dishes, which I've had a few times but which did not impress me.
As a shop and bakery, it's very good bread at reasonable prices, of various kinds (Y18 for a good multigrain loaf that certainly weighs well over a pound. Other stuff too, like granola and oatmeal that is local, as well as imported things, including American cornflakes and so forth, which some people seem to require.
Large portions, seriously so with the pizza, which is Brooklyn/American style, I guess. Convivial, conversational, good place to drink with good folks on both sides of the bar, especially after about 9PM.
Too bourgeois.
Really good pizza and steaks. The wine machine fuddles me when I'm a bit fuddled, & seems unnecessary. Good folks on both sides of the bar.
Ain't no flies on Salvador's.
