🔴Day6: Kunming made a fortune by plane. In fact, this trip was very good. It was indeed a group tour. It might not be so free, but it saved a lot of trouble. Relatively speaking, it is okay. It is very cost-effective. If you are afraid of trouble, you can also sign up for a group. Yunnan Travel Tips Share with the group

The door of the store is not big, but it has a unique place after entering. There are several tables and small benches randomly placed in the two courtyards. At the door is a large freezer filled with various baked goods, and you can order food directly in front of the freezer. Foodies in Beijing and Shanghai may know about "Fire Cloud", a rare flagship restaurant. "Burning Cloud" actually transported and reproduced two dishes from this barbecue restaurant-"Golden Pot Beef" and "Mint Pork Brain Flowers". The waiter here seems to have no idea what the golden golden pot is. The golden golden pot is probably the name given by the lady boss of Huohuo Yun.
Since it was getting late at night, we "only" ordered five grilled products: "Golden Jinguo Beef", mint brain flower, dried beef and steamed tofu. All dishes can be asked to be served after they are cooked, but the fun and flavor of freshly baked may be more sufficient.

The way beef is eaten is actually more like hot pot. A small iron pot contains a base made of coriander, millet pepper, chopped peanuts, folded ears, mashed garlic and some unknown spices. It is cooked in the oven, boiled, and rinsed in the marinated beef. Eat it now. When eating it, it should be served with special dipping water, which is made with fermented bean curd, coriander, shredded peanuts, folded ears and other spices. The flavors of various spices collide in the mouth. No spice has a particularly prominent flavor, but it matches each other just right and works well.
Menthol flowers are another must-order. Roasted brain flowers are also a common roast product in mainland barbecue restaurants, but fresh mint leaves are added to the practice here. The fascia of the brain flower is very clean and tastes extremely dense. The mint makes the originally heavy brain flower more refreshing. When eating this dish in Huohuoyun in Beijing, he often mixed brain flowers into rice. It was also a delicious way to eat it.
Dry rice is a common ingredient, which is actually beef jerky. The specialty of this place's dried rice is dipped in water. The dipped water made of sesame oil and mashed garlic is added with a few spices that make the store stop, making the taste of the dried rice extremely charming and addictive.
Pig tails are also a small highlight. The outer skin of the pig's tail is roasted and fragrant. The pig's tail actually does not have much lean meat, but there is a rich layer of fat sandwiched between the outer skin and bones. When dipped in dry sauces, it will be soft, waxy and spicy.
Compared with the above dishes, Baojiang tofu is a bit eclipsed.

2. Lin Yuanzi
Local people get up early and eat rice dumplings, rice dumplings, and rice noodles. Yuanzi is actually a mini beef meatball. Order a serving of clear soup dumplings, rice dumplings and rice dumplings. Diners will add several seasonings according to their own tastes before eating the seemingly simple Yuanzi Ersi: spicy pepper, pickled pepper, pickle cake, kimchi water, garlic powder, pepper powder, grass fruit powder, etc. Dipping cakes is a bit like Indian flying cakes, with eggs wrapped in them and sprinkled with condensed milk. Milk tea is also similar in taste to Southeast Asian milk tea, made from strong tea and condensed milk.

3. Gan Ying's soaked chicken feet, Menghuan's soaked Luda's soaked milk, and Gan Lao's bitter rice
Not far from Lin's Yuanzi is Baisi Food City. These small shops are all located in Baisi Food City. There are several shops gathered in a courtyard, and you can taste several Dehong Prefecture delicacies in one stop.

Soaked chicken feet are 2.5 yuan each. There are various flavors that can be mixed and mixed: garlic, lemon, sweet and spicy, etc.
Paoluda is a dessert that seems to witness the circulation of flavor. According to its name, it probably originated from Falooda in Persia, a summer dessert made of rose water and milk with fine noodles. Later, it was brought to the Indian subcontinent by Muslim merchants and carried forward in India by the prosperous Mughal Dynasty.

In Paoluda, the soup base has been transformed into milk, coconut milk, and condensed milk that are more readily available locally. The ingredients are also imaginatively added with dried bread, fresh coconut meat, and Chinese specialties such as cold shrimp and ice powder. Food is probably the simplest source of happiness. Regardless of religious beliefs or culture, people of all ethnic groups have the same pursuit of food. Paoluda, a dessert originating in Persia, can bypass the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and appear in the southwestern border town of China. The ingredients will change according to local tastes and customs, but the circulation of flavors and people's imagination about the collocation of ingredients can sometimes be surprising.

As soon as I finished using Paluda, it started to rain heavily outside. While hiding from the rain, I simply ordered some food to spend the time avoiding the rain.
Sakai refers to a series of Dai delicacies, which are dipped with cold ingredients and meat, and rice noodles are dipped in, including bitter rice, lemon, etc. For the first time we tried it, we chose the slightly stronger Kussa. Kuza is pounded together with raw pork mashed, leeks, coriander and other seasonings, as well as semi-digested green bitter juice from beef intestines. It should be beef flour that you can also eat in Guizhou. Before eating, use Shuan spicy food to swim around in the soup and use it as dipping sauce for rice noodles. It may seem to have a strong taste, but behind the bitter taste is actually the fragrance of grass, just like the smell of a well-trimmed, wet lawn that had just rained in the morning. The flavors of herbs and spices such as coriander and leeks will also collide with each other in the mouth. Probably because Dehong is hot and humid, eating bitter salad will also have the effect of dispelling heat. Dehong's food is like this. He is good at playing with various spices, herbs and ingredients with unique smells, and can resolve the heavy taste ingredients just right. He also has to admire the imagination of the inventor of Sakai, emmmm... And courage.

There is also a vendor selling pickled fruits at the entrance of Best Food City. It sells green plum, pineapple, pear and sour papaya marinated with pickled peppers. When eating, they even carry chili seeds and white sugar. Sour papaya is particularly impressive. The acidity of the fruit itself, the sour and spicy nature of the marinade, the spicy nature of the chili and the sweetness of the white sugar are sawing each other in the mouth. At the end of chewing, there is a kind of sweetness similar to licorice.

With the company of delicious food and the sparse rain, my mood relaxed.
