My wife likes the Hot Pot. In Chengdu there are numerous restaurants and stalls on the street serving food. One of the most popular chinese restaurants in Chengdu is the Dragon Restaurant in the beginning of (South section) Chunxi Road. This is the main shopping street with the large light billboards.
