Chén Mápó Dòufu

Chengdu


The plush flagship of this famous chain is a great place to experience mápó dòufu (麻婆豆腐; small/large ¥12/20) – soft, house bean curd with a fiery sauce of garlic, minced beef, fermented soybean, chilli oil and Sichuan pepper. It’s one of Sichuan’s most famous dishes and this restaurant’s speciality. Nonspicy choices are available, too.
