I'm traveling to Chongqing for the 1st time together with a good buddy. What's the best itinerary

Do you wanna visit CQ only? If so, it is hard to give you an itineray without knowing how many days you will visit. Anyway, the local Ciqikou, CQ Zoo and China Three Gorges Museum as well as Dazu Rock Carvings are great attractions there. If you have enough time, I also recommend you take a cruise at local Chaotianmen Port to view the Three Gorges.
