 Sakura Cafe by Ines28
They also have a wide variety of local, italian, western and korean dishes, and they are all good!
Our favourite dish was definitely the hot (in both ways) korean soup, don´t recall the name but think the other soups were served cold.

 Hubby in the Cafe by CGarnett
We loved the hotpot (with a choice of meats and veggies). Nothing could have been nicer on a VERY cold wintery day! Also I remember the stir fried eggplant being particularly yummy. And if you have an appetite for pizza, look no further! It's better than any I've had in Hong Kong!

 The old town market coming to
life by GillianMcLaughlin
So I set off to find out where it was all coming from and to investigate the fare that was on offer. It was amazing! Soup (I passed on that for breakfast, although it is a staple for many Chinese at breakfast time), heaps of fried things that looked suspiciously like some former insect, various vegetable dishes... the variety was amazing, and stood in stark contrast to the stands that were opening around, and which were clearly catering for a tourist clientelle.
I opted for a savoury dumpling, the size of a large fist, that could have been filled, for all I know, with some of those insect-resembling dishes. I don't care. it was delicious and warming and filling... just the thing to be munching in the early morning sunshine while watching others hard at work.
It cost so little that they practically paid me to eat it: probably around 20 cents. Yummy!
I did relent and have a less-than traditional coffee in a bar on the square that enabled me to continue my surveillance of Naxi salespeople setting up their colourful stalls. A lucky move as it turned out, as I met there a really nice French woman, also on her own, with whom I went off cycling that day.

I’m glad that I found Don Papa in the Old Town of Lijiang. The food was so delicious. I wanted to try each dish from that restaurant, but I failed because I didn't have no enough time. And since I found it in Lijiang, I kept getting fatter.
It was not easy to find it. I would have missed it if they had not displayed colorful desserts at the entrance. Entering it was one of my best decisions during this trip. The owner spoke Chinese and French. So in the restaurant, the official languages were French, Chinese and English. I enjoyed all the dishes and decoration of that restaurant, and pleasant talk with other customers and the staff.
It’s one of the smallest and the best western restaurant (French) that I’ve found in China.

 Bee Larvae in Lijiang by bpacker
Steamed Silkworm ? I'll eat that ! Tequila with a Meal Worm? Let me chow it down! Fried Scorpion? Let me chew that sucker!
So when the Lijiang locals told me that they had bee larvae appetisers in a restaurant, I told them to bring it on. They did. The bee babies came deep fried with salt,pepper,msg and chilli powder. And from far, they looked like plump kernels of popcorn with large eyes. Only they tasted better. They were crisp, fatty and surprisingly, nutty-tasting. Hubby and I knocked each other chopsticks in an effort to grab the last larvae. I won.
Review: A distinctive, delicious taste. Some people say that the taste was redolent of honey but I didn't detect it at all. Leave a Comment Theme: LocalPrice: US$11-20 » Currency ConverterComparison: more expensive than averageDirections: Qiyi Street, Lijiang Old Town

Near Stone Bridge, a wooden house stood beside a water way, lightened by red lanterns. It was Rembrandt Cafe. The first time I stopped at Rembrandt Cafe because I liked its name and location.
Three lovely girls worked there. One of them, Sasha, was the owner. She and her cafe have been in Lijiang Old Town for 6 years. I enjoyed talking with her, a happy, independent and intelligent woman. But the stars were two little doggies, you will see them in the pictures.
I liked the decoration and atmosphere of it, quiet, natural, simple and comfortable. And I liked the staff.
If you go to Rembrandt Cafe, I hope you enjoy your time there, delicious Italian food, maybe the girls can still remember me.
About food, I recommend pasta, mushroom pizza, XXX pizza( sorry, I forgot the name), Naxi fried rice. Theme: ItalianPrice: less than US$10 » Currency ConverterComparison: about averageAddress: No. 6, Xin Yi Street, Bai Sui Fang, Old TownPhone: 086 0888 5129971Directions: Near Stone Bridge
