Flower Sellers on Foreigner Street

Dali is a Bai autonomous prefecture where the local Bai and Yi people still prefer to wear their colorful costumes and headdresses even when working in the fields.  The City is small and attractive with its cobbled street, old stone houses and city walls.

Each diner has a large bowl of steaming broth to which they add the contents of seven little dishes of meat and fish, seven little dishes of spices, pickles fruit and quail egg and a bowl of noodles, stir to cook through and voila, a veritable feast.
