Kunming is the capital and largest city of Yunnan province in southwest China. Known as Yunnan-Fu until the 1920s, today it is a prefecture-level city and the political, economic, communications and cultural centre of the province as well as the seat of the provincial government. Kunming is also called the Spring city due to its weather. The headquarters of many of Yunnan's large businesses are in Kunming. It was important during World War II as a Chinese military center, American air base, and transport terminus for the Burma Road. Located in the middle of the Yunnan–Guizhou Plateau, Kunming is located at an altitude of 1,900 metres (6,234 feet) above sea level and at a latitude just north of the Tropic of Cancer. Kunming has as of 2014 a population of 6,626,000 with an urban population of 4,575,000, and is located at the northern edge of the large Lake Dian, surrounded by temples and lake-and-limestone hill landscapes.

Excellent food, friendly and efficient service. This place is always a winner. I come here two or three times a year. Yesterday, as always, I made a point of ordering one of their signature dishes: crispy fried red beans é ¥çº¢è±ãThey make several excellent variations; the ones I had were fried with bits of bitter leaf greens, è¦èãThis is Yunnan food at its best.Also had a dish of æ°´ç ®è, made with plenty of cabbage. The bits of meat had been marinated properly and were quite tender. They season such plates to suit the taste of chili-loving locals, so if you want less, you must remember to tell them. Those two plus a bowl of steamed rice cost 50 Yuan. Enough for two people. I don't know if anyone there speaks English. It's possible, but I can't guarantee it. The menus have pictures, but are not bilingual. Diners were mostly Kunming locals, but I met some out of town Chinese as well. I arrived at 5:30 just as they opened. By 6, the place was full and people were eating at small tables set up on the sidewalk. By 6:15 when I left, they were taking names on a waiting list. So, it's a popular place; always a good sign in China. They have been operating in the same spot for 15 years. This is a "don't miss" eating experience if you are coming to Kunming.

Trust this and other TA reviews - you won't be disappointed by Heavenly Manna. We found it easily after exploring the Green Lake area by foot (were we staying and the Grand Park Kunming). While the initial impression was a bit underwhelming based on the cramped decor and the low ceiling on the second floor where we sat (at 6' 2" I was forced to crouch until I found my seat). Once seated though, everything fell into place and my wife, daughter and I had a splendid dinner. I don't recall what we ordered but it was a combination of vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes and everything was amazing. Service was just ok, nothing exceptional. Total cost for three adults and beers was about 170 yuan.

Apart from the bakery near our hotel this restaurant is probably the place we visited most in Kunming. The menu has English and pictures (which always puts you at ease when eating in China), the staff are friendly and attentive, the service is quick and there's free tea and chopsticks with slightly roughened tips (which really help a non pro chopstick user). The food was both really tasty and great value.If nothing else draws you to Fu Yu Hsuan then you should come just to try the pork and truffle soup-dumplings. The truffle flavour works beautifully in the perfectly hand made dumplings. I could easily imagine paying 5 times the price for the same thing in a fancy London restaurant.

Guoqiao Mixian (namely passing bridge rice noodles) is a famous Yunnan speciality. If you have never tried it, I strongly recommend to taste it. It is actually noodles soup, and according to you taste you can put ingredients like ham, bamboo shoots, etc.

We suspected that the restaurant gets most of its business from private parties -- there were a few going on when we visited. It was quite quiet otherwise. Food was good, nice wines from Australia. Service was sparse.
2. Camellia Chinese Restaurant
Our restaurant offers sumptuous Cantonese and Kunming style cuisine, where traditional dishes are given a modern touch to deliver a creative, taste worthy experience.
