NO.6 Flower feast
The term "sexy and delicious" often describes the most lovable thing for beautiful women, but it is probably unlikely to really have a full meal. However, if you come to Yunnan, "Sweet and Eatable" will become very practical, satisfying, and very convenient, because the trend of eating flowers in Yunnan was quite popular in ancient times, and it is even more popular now.
The scenery of the four seasons is different, and the flowers of the four seasons are also different. You can see flowers of different colors in every season in Yunnan. Rapeseed flowers, bitter thorn flowers , pomegranate flowers , Panzhihua, sea cauliflower, etc., each flower is graceful and has a unique fragrance and deliciousness. The cooking method has always been unconventional. It can be made, stir-fryed, made soup, or used as seasonings. It has many light tastes. It can be eaten by cold, stir-fry, fry, fry, fry, roll, and steamed. There are thousands of ways to eat a hundred kinds of flowers.
The flowers I eat in Yunnan are never arty and elegant, simple and casual, a small plate, with a bad appearance but beautiful and refreshing, and a handful of stir-frying at the streets and alleys, or a handful of them at home. They are never exquisite, but they never have the leisure time to keep their lips and teeth fragrant.

No bowl, no spoon, no iron wine utensils, rice is cooked in bamboo tubes, vegetables are pounded in bamboo tubes, the dishes are green banana leaves, the spoons for drinking soup are folded from leaves, and even the wine glass is made from bamboo joints. From content to form, from vision to taste, they are far away from the concept of modern diet. This is the real original ecology
