Nhà hàng Tùng Lâm near Gejiu, worth the trip?
Skip it unless you're already headed to Mengzi, where the border-town kitchens actually earn that kind of detour.
Ca phe sua da, if they still do it.
Mengzi's alleys near the old railway terminus beat anything on the Gejiu side, no contest.
I haven't been to Tùng Lâm myself, but that name reads Vietnamese rather than Chinese, which is odd for a spot near Gejiu. Double check it's still open before you cross over, and confirm the address with whoever recommended it.
Yeah always check it's not just a menu translation thing, names get mangled all the time.
Same happens with Chinese place names romanized twice over.
Worth asking whether it's a Vietnamese-run spot serving the old Indochina crowd or just a transliteration on Dianzhu.
honestly calling ahead is the move, phone nuber might be dead by now
The old French quarter side, ask for the pho.
Fair point, plus the name could just be a Chinese owner borrowing a Vietnamese-sounding brand, so ask who actually runs teh kitchen.
Karaoke in Gejiu 2026: is 200 yuan per hour normal?
200 sounds like the whole-night rate for a mid-size room, not per hour. Most places in Gejiu quote the room for the evening and split it among whoever shows up. Confirm whether drinks and fruit plates are included before u commit.
Agree, and check if the room has a minimum spend.
Minimum spend usually kicks in after 10pm.
usually kicks in closer to 9 on weekends
Weeknights it's more like 8.
Different spots, different cutoffs. Check with the room.
fair, but teh clock varies by venue so just ask upfront when their cutoff actually is
yeah the fruit plate thing trips people up, some spots count it toward the 200 and some bill it separate. ask them to write the total on paper before you sit down, saves the awkward bit at the end
Writing it on paper also stops them adding a service fee afterward, which some rooms slip in at checkout.
Per-room pricing is standard across Gejiu, not per head.
