Forums > Living in Kunming > "The Celebration" tonight at Nordica Just saw that this movie is showing tonight at TCG. It is one of my favourite movies and I can warmly recommend it if you have never heard about it. I even watched it as a play in London's West End a few years back,, the plot still works out really well on the stage. Anyway,, go check it out if you have the time,, it's worth it.
Forums > Food & Drink > CARGO CLUB That's the spirit,, although drinking by yourself is the first step towards becoming a raging alcoholic. I'll help you down it,,, that's me,, all altruistic 'n' stuff :-)
Forums > Living in Kunming > Yunnan Running Bulls,, CBA where? Found their game on p2psports. 99-99 with 30 secs to go and they pulled a 106-99 win. Pretty exciting,, I miss watching live sports :-(
Forums > Living in Kunming > Yunnan Running Bulls,, CBA where? I am looking for info on "our" team in the CBA. I'd like to go and see them play some time even though they are hopelessly last in the division. My Chinese isn't good enough to read the Chinese websites so if anyone got info on where they play their home games and when it would be great.
Forums > Food & Drink > What's your favourite Chinese dish? Food is always a great topic and I'd love to get some suggestions for dishes I haven't tried yet,, and let's face it: most of us foreigners have tried only a fraction of the insane amount of dishes from the Chinese kitchen(s).
Submit your top 3. Here are mine (excuse my lousy hanzi/pinyin)
1. Gong Bao Ji Ding, 宫爆鸡丁. Sorry,, no way around a top spot for this laowai all time favourite :)
2. Hong Shao Rou, 紅燒肉. When cooked right hui fan this is just heaven. Sadly it often contains a truckload of fat.
3. Ji Dan Huo Tiu Cao Fan. I am lost here on the spelling. Egg friend rice with ham and green peppers. This is just so darn good.
Top 3 only so no room for Hui Guo Rou, Yang Rou Chuar, Xihong shi chao Ji dan, Ma Po Doufu or,, or,,, or,,

Insect cuisine: Bugging out in Kunming
Posted byNice article. I wish I had the courage to try this stuff out. Maybe after a bottle of baijiu or two. Second the Yunnan recipes. Some of those dishes became my favourite Chinese foods and I'd love to get more ideas. Maybe GoKunming could find another local who's into the Yunnan kitchen who could pick up the torch?
