  • Police helps restore order to cab queues
    

    Totally unnecessary imo: that specific location is chaotic, because of the construction fence that blocks the wider road leading to zhongfulu. And there aren't clear signs of how to drive or park, no lanes, just some plaza. Some paint or bars would've done the job, but maybe this guy is cheaper.

  • 10-hour Chengdu-Shanghai train opens this month; more fast trains on the way
    

    Too bad, seems like it's not happening this month. From what I gathered it's post-poned to next Spring Festival.

    @francesen

    Guess you haven't read issue 35. No line 1 doesn't. There will be a line from the airport in 2012.

    Looks like you can't take the bus from Xinnanmen anymore.

    Great comment!
    I'm really tempted to check out that old mining town.

    @Paulie
    Get on the cab and tell the driver to take you to "DAFA". Should take you to 桂王桥, where you can find several shops selling PAs, but you could also order equipment of all sorts. Speakers&amps should be cheaper than imports, but not necessarily electronics (cd-players, decks, mixers).

    So the Sports uni has a gym, or try 西体馆, but there are many more places, so you should ask your gf again to fish out one place for you, since my Chinese is worse and I'm not even your gf:)

    Should be around RMB20.

    It's open, RMB90 is the entrance fee (but there is a way around that fee through some back door, maybe ask some locals).
    There are 13 high-speed trains daily from North Train Station, first train 6:32 from Chengdu, last train from Qingchengshan 20:45, 30min trip, RMB15. There are also buses from Chadianzi Bus Station, RMB16, which you only want to take if you can't get a train ticket.

    It's been a long time since the last donut from lozzi, and this time the donut tasted like absolutely nothing, it's just air. And how much is that again? 5 kuai or more? You fail.

  • Chengdu > Cacaja Indian Restaurant
    印度菜菜

    I would agree with the "caca" part, but don't know what the "ja" stands for, maybe some old Sanskrit for house making it the "House of Caca". Food is so so, the set menus for 2/3/4 persons aren't good value really, as the portions are tiny. Best dish palak paneer, the rest is not worth virtual space to mention. Drinks are cheap & terrace is ok if you like watching cars parking and passing by.

    An "African" bar run by a lesbian, horrible idea and even worse execution. 10 squaremeters of non-sense, have fun.
