Hi Brian! I’m so glad you enjoy the site. Expect some more up-to-date articles very soon, as I’ve been doing lots of research and am ready to get to some writing! Guiyang is quite limited in terms of foreign cuisine, but there are a few places that aren’t up on Guiyang Bites yet that you’ll definitely enjoy. Namo Indian Restaurant is located downtown on the ground floor level of the Yinzuo Building. Kaijo is on Putuo Lu and is a very popular Mexican (mostly baja style) restaurant. Aside from that there are a handful of Thai restaurants (my current favorite is 7号 on Fushui Bei Lu). There is also a Vietnamese restaurant called 奥黛 in 虎门巷/Humen Alley. You will find that many of Guiyang’s western-style “foreign” restaurants are a bit underwhelming, as they sort of recycle the same few lackluster recipes between them. However, if you find any gems, I’d love to hear about them. As far as corking charges, I don’t have any good information for you. It is quite common for people to bring their own baijiu to restaurants, but I haven’t really seen many people doing the same with wine. I’d expect you’ll need to ask on a case-by-case basis, and I’d let them know you’ll require glasses when you ask. Guiyang is a bit of the wild west when it comes to things like that, and they may tell you it’s not a problem at all, only for you to discover they have neither a corkscrew nor glasses! Welcome to Guiyang (even if this is quite a late welcome), and I hope you grow to love the city the way many of us do.

I only wish there was more content but I very much appreciate what is here. The MuMuOne review is great and I will try that restaurant with friends and/or family in a couple of weeks now that unpacking is done.

Just arrived in Guiyang after 12 1/2 years in Suzhou and eager to explore this amazing city. I am an avid foodie and had my own Suzhou Gourmet Gathering Group on WeChat for years. I am especially interested in not only Western restaurants but also fusion, Thai, Myanmar, Vietnamese, Cambodian, Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi, and South American cuisines (esp. Peruvian, Ecuadorian). I am curious about corking charges as I have some very fine wines. I would enjoy meeting other English-speaking friends. My Chinese is minimal and I can speak some French.
