Hi,
I was going to start a Chengdu Meet-up group, but as I am already on this forum and it seems to be used quite often thought I can see what the response is like on this.
I’m going to be new to Chengdu and I am a major foodie. I love trying new foods, dining at restaurants and cooking. Looking for other foodies.
Lets plan a Saturday and a restaurant and meet up.
I’m new so please suggest a restaurant that you have tried or want to try.
August 26, 2012 at 4:31 am #20400Brian #10ParticipantHooters?
August 26, 2012 at 8:13 am #20404JeniseParticipanthmmm, I did say I was open to suggestions, so that’s fair, and surprisingly they may have really nice chicken wings there. I also read that the food at Wenshu Temple Veg Restaurant is tasty.
August 26, 2012 at 2:12 pm #20409SandiParticipantHello Jenise,
I’m new too; just arrived on Thursday, so don’t really know of any good places yet.
Would be up for coming along though.

August 27, 2012 at 4:34 am #20412VicParticipantWelcome to CD, Jenise and Sandi.
There are a lot of nice eating places here, especially those so called “fly restaurants” in town. Let us know what you are interested in and we may chow together.
When you guys have some eating events, gi’me a holler, too.
August 27, 2012 at 5:49 am #20414CharlieKeymasterWhen do you arrive in Chengdu?
You should check out the Underground Gourmet post series on the blog to get some suggestions for good restaurants. There are a ton of great places to eat in Chengdu.
August 27, 2012 at 10:05 am #20417SandiParticipantCheers Vic, it is quite a place.
Well, I’m game for anywhere, so Jenise, you decide and we can set a date!
Incidentally, I had heard of ‘Hooters’, but the name meant nothing to me, so I googled it there – looks eh, interesting 🙂
August 27, 2012 at 11:22 am #20419JeniseParticipantHi,
I arrive on Wed 29th. I will not know where my apartment is until I get there. I do know that my work is somewhere Xindu so it has to be somewhere in that area and it seems that its close to Chengdu.
Shall we take a chance and make it for this Saturday September 1st at 6pm?
August 28, 2012 at 4:14 am #20422VicParticipant@Jenise and @Sandi:
Welcome Jenise!
We are going to eat out at the Australia Fat Beef in Champagne Plaza, 3rd floor (香槟广场澳洲肥牛,in case you need to show a taxi driver the address). It has an all you can eat beef hotpot and beer for ca.60 kuai per person.
If you need any assistance, gi’me a PM.
see ya!
August 28, 2012 at 10:06 am #20425JeniseParticipantHi Vic,
What day and what time?
August 28, 2012 at 10:53 am #20426StevenParticipantQuote:I also read that the food at Wenshu Temple Veg Restaurant is tasty.I’m not sure about Wenshu Temple vegetarian food,but I tried Zhaojue Temple Veg food long time ago, it was amazine, very delicious and all those “meat”, “fish””pork” or something like that, looks and tastes like the real mccoy
August 29, 2012 at 5:49 am #20442IonaParticipantI would love to meet up to try different restaurants and share some of the ones I know (usually around the yu lin area) but I can’t make it this Saturday – next time though!
I ate at Zhaojue Temple many years ago & it was excellent, it’s just a pity that it’s quite far away.
August 29, 2012 at 8:28 pm #20446SandiParticipantOkay guys, google maps is giving me two different addresses:
97号 East Street, Jinjiang, Chengdu, Sichuan, China
33号 Ruilian Road, Qingyang, Chengdu, Sichuan, China, 610091
I’m guessing it’s the first one – would this be right?
Off in search of a printer tomorrow so a speedy answer would be much appreciated!
Cheers,
Sandi
August 29, 2012 at 11:22 pm #20447JeniseParticipantHi Sandi, which restaurant are you googling the address for?
August 29, 2012 at 11:42 pm #20449SandiParticipantHi Jenise,
It’s the Australia Fat Beef one that Vic mentioned above.
Sandi
August 30, 2012 at 1:22 am #20451VicParticipant@Sandi
The first one is correct.
97号 East Street, Jinjiang, Chengdu, Sichuan, China
东大街97号香槟广场3楼
phone:028-86661348
Seemingly you made it safe at the second class airport.
see ya!

September 4, 2012 at 12:29 pm #20540JeniseParticipantHi Sara,
We will be meeting up this Saturday (8th Sept). I would like to check out the Wenshu Temple restaurant. Is 1pm ok?
September 4, 2012 at 12:35 pm #20541SandiParticipantCan we make it a wee bit later Jenise? x
September 4, 2012 at 12:39 pm #20542SaraMemberUnfortunately, I have to work till 5 on Saturdays for September. So I cannot make it at 1pm on this Saturday. But, please keep me in the loop as I would love to join if meet later in the day or when my schedule eases up. My e-mail is [email protected]
