Ai Ruo Chun (KunMing JinBi Park)

[Environment] No one in Kunming doesn't know Aieruochun. The Jinbi Park store has been open for decades. The old-style courtyard is decorated with carved beams and painted buildings, and it is antique. You can dine in the open hall on the first floor, or in the private rooms on the second floor. [Taste] Here you can eat the "most Yunnan" steamed chicken, truffle matsutake, bamboo worms, patinated tofu, spicy beef jerky, Yiliang roast duck, Tengchong pickled vegetables mixed with big roast, Dajiujia and other local delicacies, with exquisite plating and authentic taste. [Service] Due to the large number of guests, the serving time will be a little longer. Every time friends or colleagues from other provinces come over, I always choose this place first. Every time I am busy talking and trying new things, I don't take pictures of the dishes 😜 Friends' gatherings and business banquets are great!

Steam Pot Chicken is a specialty dish of Yunnan Province and belongs to the Dian cuisine. It is named because it is steamed in a steamer. Its main ingredient is chicken and the main cooking method is steaming. It has the effects of nourishing the body, replenishing the blood, strengthening the spleen and stimulating the appetite.

I went there for the environment after seeing the good reviews on Ctrip. It was great, a bit like the small teahouse in the TV series, antique, standing on the second floor, you can see the patio. Maybe there were too many guests and the service didn't keep up. Unfortunately, I went too late and didn't taste the steamed chicken/mushrooms. The special snacks I ordered were also very good, and my family liked them very much!

I went to this restaurant completely because of the recommendation of Ctrip. It is not far from Jinma Bijifang and can be reached on foot. The environment is great, a bit like the old teahouse in martial arts movies, with gorgeous wood-plated gold carvings on the beams. There are private rooms on the second floor, but there are seats in the aisles outside the private rooms. If you sit in the aisle seats on the second floor, you can see the seats in the patio on the first floor at a glance. The service is good. We sat in the aisle seats on the second floor and couldn’t find a socket to charge our mobile phones. The waiter helped us take the mobile phones to charge, and we didn’t have to worry about losing our mobile phones. The price is expensive. After all, there are many affordable restaurants in Kunming, and the taste is heavy and salty, but overall the taste is pretty good. I think it’s mainly expensive because of the location and environment. Tissues need to be charged separately. [Steam Pot Chicken] Yunnan specialty, also the specialty of his family, the kind that is so fresh that eyebrows are about to fall off, and you can’t tell whether there is MSG or chicken essence. [Pineapple Purple Rice] It can be regarded as a staple food or a dessert. The glutinous rice is very sticky and sweet mixed with the fragrance of pineapple. It is sweet but not greasy. However, eating glutinous rice may make you full easily, and you may not be able to eat it after just two bites.

A quaint little restaurant. I ordered steamed chicken, fried baikuai, stewed qingtou mushrooms, and fried meat with wheat grains. The baikuai was delicious. It was a mushroom festival and there were activities. I won a large portion of fresh qingtou mushrooms by lottery. They also helped me make soup and pack it for free. Thumbs up!

Came here for a trip to Kunming after reading the reviews. It should be an old restaurant, like a renovated old teahouse. The waiter was very nice and would recommend dishes. But there was no one to greet you when you entered the door, so you might need to shout. I ordered Tianma Steamed Chicken. The fresh Tianma was like yam, crispy and sticky, and delicious. The chicken was also very fresh and crispy. The chicken soup was very thick, and it should have been stewed for a long time. I didn't feel dry after eating it. I ordered Modern Baba, which was sweet, fragrant, and milky, with a crispy skin, delicious!
