 yummy snack by hooiluangoh I do not expect to find Eu Ca Koay in Kunming. But here they are, and usually very long - more than a foot long. At RMB0.50 each, it goes well with a dunk in black coffee with sugar. Unfortunately black coffee is expensive in Kunming, so bring your own "kopi o" packets from Malaysia when you come here.
This particular store is actually a restaurant opened by some cheerful young chaps. The restaurant serves many local noodles/dishes. But you don't have to go to this one if you are only after the Eu Ca Koay. Any stall with decent oil (ie not burnt or over-used) will do.

 Arirang in Korean script by hooiluangoh Tucked in where Wen Hua Xiang makes a 90 degrees turn, the restaurant's food is economical, and taste is authentic. Family setting. A must to visit if you missed korean food. The restaurant also serves korean BBQ, pancakes, soups, rice and other typical korean fares. The owner looks Korean although he speaks fluent mandarin, and has a pleasant disposition: an "oriental" gentleman. The menu is in chinese.
Try the Kimchi Chigae (pao cai tang). It comes complete with rice, and several entree made of cucumbers, turnips, etc, which is typical of a korean restaurant. Cost : RMB10 The duen-jang chigae (RMB10) and the stir-fry cuttlefish (RMB20) are also worth a try.

 The starters - FOC by hooiluangoh Brand new. Clean. Looks expensive, but not really As in any other korean restaurants, one will always get freebies. I get 6 freebies which are replenishable: tea, kimchi, pumpkin soup, stewed potato, a green salad, sauteed mushrooms. The waitresses say all the greetings in Korean, which I don't understand. They are friendly and prompt, and they remember to ask if I need more kimchi etc. But the hand towels for guests smell a bit unclean. I hope that's an isolated incident.
I ordered a Tuen Jang Chigae (RMB15). Rice comes with it as usual in a korean restaurant. Very good. Not too salty. I looked through the menu and BBQ beef costs only RMB 20 per plate. This, if good, is really a bargain !

 Lu wei dish by hooiluangoh The crowd in there tells you it is a very popular restaurant. However, like any popular and reasonably-priced restaurants in Kunming, service is lousy. Rice came when we were almost done with the dishes (as chinese food diners it is expected that rice comes with dishes, not way after). If you request for an extra bowl, you get it when you have finished your meal..
This soy sauce glazed meat (lu wei) is quite something. We only ordered proper meat(pork), some intestine and chicken wings and tofu. Many chinese are more adventurous than that, ordering 1) pig ears 2) pig tongue 3) pig *** 4) pig (any organ you can think of) 5) tofu Leave a Comment Theme: LocalPrice: less than US$10 » Currency ConverterComparison: less expensive than averageAddress: Wenlin Street Fuyong Path #9Phone: (0871) 533 2124Directions: Wenlin Jie, oppositive a middle school.Other Contact: email: louiewei@sina.com.cn

 complete Kunming meal by hooiluangoh As any busy Kunming restaurants, this place also "forgot" to serve rice until we almost finished all the dishes. Luckily the picture was taken before we started.

 Ergen(left); peacake(right); cucumber (behind) by hooiluangoh Very busy. So busy that customers are usually ignored. But the crowd that dine there don't seem to mind at all.
This salad has a oily and spicy sauce, which is quite flavoursome. It consists of 3 things: 1) Er Gen - only found here in Kunming and not anywhere else. Takes a while to fall in love. Or you'll never like it. Said to have "cooling" property. 2)Green pea cake/jelly - this is very firm. Goes well when dipped in the salad sauce. 3) Cucumber - my favourite.

 Facade of Fumama by hooiluangoh The whole place is built of pinewood. The owner pays attention to its deco including fresh flowers in a huge vase. Gives a nice feeling. There are two Mamafu's around, one is called Mamafu, the other Fumama. Anyway, Mamafu sells western food, while Fumama, just 3 doors away, sell noodle soup.
If you have been deprived of real chicken curry for a long time (real meaning: Malaysian), then this is a good surrogate. The "curry" is actually lots of turmeric, no onion or those "tumis" we use back home. It's a huge serving RMB10. They also serve other varieties of noodles, namely the typical Kunming "mixian", or "ersi". The noodle is good, real noodle with "kyi" in it to give it the "qiu" and yellowish colour. I specifically mention this because in Kunming, you get a lot of noodle like our assam laksa noodle (mixian), or our "pan min" noodle (er si), but never proper bihun, misua, or this real yellow noodle.

 been to this place ? by hooiluangoh A typical local eatery. The claypot with small mouth ensures the soup stays hot for a long time. The food is served fast, which is good. You select the type of flavour you want for your noodle soup, pay for it, and find a table.
Rice noodles of course. Various meat from very normal pork and chicken to frog to a luxurious type offering all ( I think) Price starts from RMB 5 (peanut soup - vegetarian). When the noodle set is served, put the raw raw into the soup first, followed by raw vegetables, then cooked meat, and lastly the noodles.

 Nobody is there by hooiluangoh The evening the only guests were the two of us. Traditional Japanese deco, with rectangular tables and chairs (no you don't have to kneel) If you opt to pay by credit/debit card, you are taken to another restaurant in the hotel.
I had a set meal - sashimi set. You can a choice of 3 different fish/ My husband had tenpura set and a kirin beer. Leave a Comment Theme: Japanese/SushiPrice: US$11-20 » Currency ConverterComparison: more expensive than average

 why this colour if the pic is vertical by hooiluangoh The deco makes you think you are in Europe. There are three levels to it, each table has its own unique settings. The bread is authentically French, and comes with an onion dip (although I prefer mash olives, which I used to get in a southern Italian restaurant in Singapore). The soup, salad, main course are all good. The ONLY CATCH - it is NOT CONSISTENT. I was full of praise the first time I went there, then the second time everything was oozing oil....
The local salad in vinegar sauce, with wood-ear fungus and sesame seeds, is very nice, although it is not traditional French, but this can be called fusion food I guess.
