19. InterContinental Kunming·The Market

乍都叻乾隆The service is very good👍The dishes are rich and the taste is first-class!! There are many dishes with Kunming characteristics, which are worth trying as a tourist from outside. Today's Laotan pickled cabbage beef is stewed with a very good taste, but it is a little salty for children. The dessert is also good, and the red wine is prepared very carefully, which is the kind that can be drunk in the buffet. The balloon-making sister worked hard and has always been the focus of the children. I like it very much💕 [Service] Very good! [Taste] Very good! [Environment] Needs to be updated!

天勤麻麻Dian cuisine originated from the ancient Dian Kingdom from the Spring and Autumn Period to the Han Dynasty. It took shape during the Tang and Song Dynasties (Nanzhao and Dali Kingdom periods), experienced great changes and development during the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, and was formed in the middle of the Qing Dynasty. It is a type of cuisine in the Chinese cuisine system that has distinct national cuisine characteristics and outstanding local cuisine characteristics.

21. YUNQUEEN RICENOOLDES

俏老爷The address of Yunkui store on the second floor of Huazhicheng is not clear. I couldn't explain it clearly when I called. I looked around Huazhicheng for a long time before I found it. It was almost empty before 5 o'clock. The waiter was eating and chatting. I ordered a cold dish platter of 2 meat and 2 vegetables, and the ingredients, soup, and rice noodles of the classic cross-bridge rice noodles. The mini steamed chicken was also good. The waiter finally helped to pack up the cold dishes that were not finished.

22. Lao Dian Shan Zhai

AU$14Yunnan CuisineFeatured performances

westlifeweiweiI went there in February 2019. There were cultural performances at around 7pm. Everyone was good at singing and dancing, and it was quite lively. I personally think the environment is very good, with a strong ethnic minority style, and the place is very large and a bit domineering. In terms of food, it is generally quite good. I personally think that the quality of the ingredients is also good, and the quantity is also good. It costs about 40 yuan per person, and the cost performance is quite high. Then the taste is relatively heavy, and there is nothing else that impressed me.

23. 6th GREEN LAKE

AU$24Western-style

WWDXThe weekend buffet launched by the old state guesthouse focuses on Yunnan specialty ingredients, which is slightly different from other five-star hotels. I have been to the Western restaurant on the first floor many times. The environment is elegant and the service attitude is also good. The important thing is that there are not many people, which is safer during the epidemic. Shangri-La Tibetan fragrant pig, Nisi chicken, golden trout, black goat... These are rare dishes in other buffets. The overall taste is suitable for locals. After all, there are not many Western dishes, and it is good to have differentiation. The hotel has been open for too long, and the tables and chairs in the restaurant are a bit old and damaged. It is recommended to replace them. There is still room for improvement in the dishes, such as the Tibetan fragrant pork is too old, which wastes good ingredients.

rubywwj123I went to this restaurant today and was lucky enough to be the first group to go in. The manager and the waiter were very enthusiastic in introducing the dishes. The first bite of the chicken soup was so delicious. None of the dishes were disappointing. It is worth recommending

25. Golden Resources Cafeteria

浪里个浪榨菜The ingredients are very fresh, and it is really a very honest merchant. The coupons on the platform are also very cost-effective. It will get better and better! The platform recommended by friends, the activities here are very cost-effective, and it is also very convenient to consume in the store, which is great🤞

26. duogeshui

AU$13Yunnan Cuisine

三木葉This is an old Dai-style restaurant in Kunming, located in Sima Lane next to Jinma Square. Because I was traveling alone, it was a headache to find food. This time I happened to live in Sima Lane, and one day I ordered takeout nearby. The banana leaf rice was delicious, and I went to the restaurant to eat again later. There were many people queuing at the door, but there was no need to wait for a seat for one person. There was a small table for one person in the corner of the second floor. The restaurant is decorated in the Dai style. The space is not large, but it is very lively. One person ordered lemon chicken, grilled fish with seasoning, and pau ruda. [Taste] 📍Lemon chicken: dominated by sour taste, half a lime was squeezed in, and it was mixed with millet pepper. I personally think the taste is not enough 📍Grilled fish with seasoning: The taste is good, the fish belly is filled with spices, and it is full of flavor 📍Pau ruda: A Burmese beverage with sago, purple rice, milk, coconut shreds, condensed milk, bread cubes, and it is delicious to relieve greasiness

27. Ai Ruo Chun (KunMing JinBi Park)

AU$16Yunnan CuisineCourtyard

幽谷子兰[Environment] No one in Kunming doesn't know Aieruochun. The Jinbi Park store has been open for decades. The old-style courtyard is decorated with carved beams and painted buildings, and it is antique. You can dine in the open hall on the first floor, or in the private rooms on the second floor. [Taste] Here you can eat the "most Yunnan" steamed chicken, truffle matsutake, bamboo worms, patinated tofu, spicy beef jerky, Yiliang roast duck, Tengchong pickled vegetables mixed with big roast, Dajiujia and other local delicacies, with exquisite plating and authentic taste. [Service] Due to the large number of guests, the serving time will be a little longer. Every time friends or colleagues from other provinces come over, I always choose this place first. Every time I am busy talking and trying new things, I don't take pictures of the dishes 😜 Friends' gatherings and business banquets are great!
