A couple of posts on this site that may be relevant to your quest:
If you're into kitsch, there is a massive Optimus Prime statue in NW Kunming: www.gokunming.com/en/blog/item.php?blog_id=23
There's also today's post about an indie label in Kunming, a new music bar in the university area and a lomo exhibit: www.gokunming.com/en/blog/item.php?blog_id=47
Hope that helps.
Word is now it will be in December. We'll definitely post something once it's officially on.
I'm pretty sure I've seen them at Chapter One on Wenlin Jie. Also, Mandarin Books on Wenhua Xiang should have a copy. If you find a used copy around here make sure that the Yunnan section is still in the book.
Are there any good tailors here in Kunming? I need to get some suits made. Thanks to anyone who can help.
No results found.
Happy ninth birthday Sal, you've made Kunming a better place.
Four stars for a great restaurant with friendly staff.
I give Tusheng Shiguan a fifth star for its goal of promoting environmentally sound food production.
My favorite Tengchong-style restaurant in Kunming. Their ersi and erkuai are trucked over from Tengchong and are the real deal — Kunming ersi and erkuai do not compare.
The restaurant itself is a bit jumbled, but there are a couple of tables outside in the courtyard that are nice to sit at when the weather's pleasant.
Don't believe them when they say they don't have lufu.
Tom and Jiajia have been baking up a storm lately. Thanks to them I have delicious sourdough bread to toast on the space heater in the office.
The Bircher muesli is probably the healthiest and most delicious breakfast around.
Pound for pound, one of the best little Western restaurants in China. 佳佳万岁!
Just had gnocchi in mushroom sauce and a glass of wine for dinner on the balcony in mid-January. Awesome.

Fatal beating puts spotlight on security guards
Posted byIt turns out that there may have been a third beating victim and the security guards may have been from a nearby KTV, but media reports on the matter have been all over the place. This post/video on Shanghaiist sums up the Chinese media's rather difficult job:

China's men's footballers remain undefeated in Kunming
Posted by@Tim_W: As you probably noticed, the AFC website doesn't say where fixtures are scheduled to be held. I'm guessing there won't be any further matches at Tuodong Stadium, but I'm happy to be wrong. Unfortunately, events like this aren't promoted so well, and even buying tickets usually requires knowing someone - not surprising in a town that scrapped its initial plans for the Olympic torch to pass through town and then made it a VIP event out at Yunnan Minorities Village at the last minute.
