I saw that place on Bizarre Foods. I would love to try it, but I’m always intimidated by fancy restaurants. I wonder how much it costs (I found an article online from 2009 that says “Price depends on number of people: Between 200 yuan to 600 yuan per head” so I’m sure it’s gone up by now.)
Take a look here for more info. A friend went last week and said it was 320RMB/head for 12 people. You have to book in advance and pay a deposit as a lot of preparation is needed.
There’s a documentary called Bizarre Foods: Chengdu where they visit this place (amongst many others). Definately worth a look if you’re looking for “don’t miss local restaurants” !
There’s a HD version of this show as well on one of the Chinese streaming websites, but I can’t remember which one.
