Salvador’s

Kunming


Always busy with travellers and students, Salvador’s is now a Kunming staple. With a Mexican/Mediterranean food theme, as well as solid breakfasts, good coffee and a decent range of teas, it caters for all hours of the day. In the evening, you can hang around the bar and watch as Kunming's hipsters and youth parade along Wenhua Xiang.
