Any steak lovers here?

[Olivia]

Hi guys! I am a newbie here in chengdu. I just settled in near the American consulate a few months ago. I have realized the steaks sold in the supermarkets are thin as a cardboard and do not look appealing at all. Do you guys have any stores have good imported steaks around in chengdu? (Specifically looking for good tenderloin :P)

Just a random question, which steak cuts do you guys like the most?

You can buy a whole fillet in Auchan and I have seen them in the farmer’s markets as well. They are almost certainly not as good as beef from  Aberdeen Angus but then I have never knowingly encountered any imported beef that was not frozen or worthy of buying a second time.

There is a massive forum thread about this from years ago: Getting Steak in Chengdu. A lot of the information in there is probably still accurate.
