One of my favorite foods in Chengdu. Actually had the fish on Sunday night.

Anyway, I think a lot of restaurants in Chengdu have some problems most of them small problems that shouldn’t affect our health too much.

This kind of media story about one chain of restaurants, in my opinion is probably from either:
-They upset the Food Safety Administration (Maybe not paying enough in bribes) so they published a harmful story about them.
-Competitor (maybe zizi滋滋烤鱼） using their media relationships to spread rumors about their competitors.

Either way, rumors spread fast in China so I’m sure this will be bad for business for a couple of months.

I’ve heard that real estate developers in Chengdu MUST do newspaper advertising with the local papers otherwise they will run negative stories about their build quality/location etc. I think is goes without saying that the same kind of racket exists in the food industry too.
