Huan Tian Zai is a Miao-minority cuisine restaurant, featuring Miao Jia Suan Tang Yu (苗家酸汤鱼) sour fish and Hua Jiang Gou Rou(花江狗肉) dog meat. I had the opportunity to enjoy their Suan Tang Yu already twice and I must confess it is one of the best fish dishes I've eaten in Chengdu.
Although not of Sichuan cuisine, it's origins being with the Miao people of Guizhou, this restaurant and their special fish is one of the more popular ones in Chengdu at the moment. Their special dishes are Sour Soup Fish and Hua River Dog Meat.

One company, however, heeded the government's call and unperturbed by the challenges of moving to the West, decided to go ahead and set up its operations in Chengdu, capital of Sichuan Province. Although it took US computer giant Intel three and a half years of intensive research before making the move to Chengdu in 2004, the company is pleased with its decision and since then has started expanding its facilities.
A nice article about Intel's challenges of opening business in Chengdu.

Tibet train ticket prices announced |
|
Chengdu News
|
According to this article, the prices for the altiplano train to Tibet have been decided. Here are the prices from Chengdu, to remind you can take one of these trains from Beijing, Chongqing, Lanzhou and Xi'ning too. At least it's clearly cheaper than flying to Tibet, but since the new airport in Nyingchi will open soon, who knows if there might be some cheap offers coming.
For the 3,360-kilometer trip between Chengdu, provincial capital of southwest China's Chengdu province, and Lhasa, the hard seat price is 331 yuan (41.38 dollars), the hard sleeper price is 712 yuan (89 dollars), and the cost of a soft sleeper is 1,104 yuan (138 dollars).
