YunNan Kitchen (彩雲之南), South End (Boston)

Years ago we had a Yunnan meal prepared by a chef originally from Yunnan (he’s cooking Sichuan now- i guess more name recognition). It’s got some of the dishes you mentioned as well.

We tried the fish from XiShaungBanNa. He cooked a mushroom dish as well, though of course, he didn’t have access to the mushroom available in Yunnan.

Interesting to read about your report. They certainly got the courage to run a shop with the Yunnan banner given the lack of familiarity of its food from most people.

I think it isn’t a bad thing that the noodle isn’t on the menu. Not easy to cook all these other dishes and then have to worry about the noodle, the broth, and the ingredient prep. That noodle is a lot of work.
