    Welcome to Chengdu.

    Pro tip, do no trust anyone who tells you that they know of a great Indian restaurant here. There are none.

    Even if you are being held at gun point, try before you buy.

    Hey, has anyone tried the ‘new’ one near Xinnanmen, I heard it was cheap, dirty and cheerful. But I haven’t tried myself yet.

    Anyone have firsthand experience?

    The one near Huaxi? It’s not dirty, but it ain’t 5 star either. Been there 5 or 6 times, and generally pretty good, and yes, it’s cheap.

    Heard they have 19rmb lunch specials now… Ray, I believe this calls for a recon mission.

    Yeah man, i usually get a veg curry ( the meat ones kinda have gristly bits of ???), rice and a chapati (really good chapatis) and it runs me about 20 kua). I’ve seen alot of Nepali/Indian/Bangladeshi/Pakistani students there (one girl said VERY firmly “we are are NOT Indian) so the restaurant must be doing something right…

    The mother-in-law/waitress is really nice, if sometimes a little disorganised….

    Gotta say, been hitting Rice Plus for a post-gym meal the last week, and its good. They have an Indian curry (which i dont think is on the menu. I just ask for it) which has decent pieces of bird (no gristly stuff) and fills me up for 24 kuai. And I’ll say it again: that place plays better music than ANY bar/restaurant/nightclub i’ve come across in Chengdu…

    Sorry Madhu. This post has been hijacked by foodies…
