Chinese restaurants in Yúnnán

  1. A

    Hotpot Restaurant

    An absolute madhouse at peak mealtimes, this restaurant will take the very aggressive or the very brave to muscle their way though the throngs and eventually get fed. Nonetheless, with all the slick restaurant and eateries all over Kūnmíng these days, this is a breath of fresh air.

    Ma Ma Fu's 2

    This branch of the legendary Lìjiāng café is right around the corner east of the Camellia Hotel (and there's a third branch now, north of Kunming Cloudland Youth Hostel). Chinese dishes are by far the best, but most people order Western fare like pizza and apple pie.

  3. Wei's Pizzeria

    The granddaddy of Kūnmíng's Western-style cafes, down an alley off Tuodong Lu, Wei's has been a sanctuary for many a traveller for good reason: capacious interiors warmed by a wood-fired pizza oven, frosted beer steins, and outstanding food (Western and Chinese).

    Brothers Jiang

    A local fave, this simple place has such good across-the-bridge noodles that there are now several branches throughout the city, most of which are filled to capacity at mealtimes. Pay upfront first at the cash register and make sure you get the instructions on the eating process!

  5. Bamboo Café

    If the Dálǐ street throngs are getting to you, there's no better place for a break than this dark, cosy restaurant. Meals like bai fish are a great introduction to the local cuisine and the English menu will give you a window to other local specialities.

    Marley's Café

    Marley's has always been a cornerstone of the town; now away from the Huguo Lu throngs, it's airier and more relaxing. Well-done food, great service, helpful advice. Check out the Bai banquet on Sunday nights (reserve early).

    1910 La Gare du Sud

    Ensconced cosily in a neocolonial building, this place has luscious Yúnnán specialities done up in a classy but relaxed atmosphere. There's an English menu if you ask for it.
