Amazing Flavor of Yunnan Street Cuisines!
- [2014.04.10] Posted By Akira Hojo
I came to Yunnan, China since 8th of April. Initially, I planned to come to Yunnan on the first week of April. However, I purposely postponed my trip a week later due to the speculation of the pu-erh tea price in the beginning of the spring tea season, moreover, the production of the pu-erh tea in this year was late due to the drought and cold weather in spring.
Yunnan province has the vast area which is even bigger than my country, Japan. Most of the area in Yunnan province consists of mountain. There are many minority ethnics who have very unique culture and life style. The capital of Yunnan province, Kunming (Altitude is about 1850m), is the regional economies and clusters of agricultural product and various industries. You will also find the vast number of food culture in Yunnan that is deeply influenced by the various minority ethnics, from neighbouring countries and provinces as well. Generally people in Yunnan like very spicy food. The flavour of Yunnan cuisine is like combining the Sichuan Food plus the Thai Food and the Mongolian Food, and then divides them by 3. I would like to introduce various kinds of Yunnan local food that I found in Kunming.
