A classmate who settled overseas came back to visit his family. We recommended a lot of delicious food to him, but he wanted to eat Chen Mapo Tofu. So we went to this flagship store. Business was booming. We couldn't book a private room 3 days in advance. 14 people finally squeezed into a table for 10 people by adding stools. We went there at 5 pm, and we had to queue up at 6 pm. After sitting down, I started ordering dishes. I estimated that the fighting power of 14 people should be very strong. I ordered 14 dishes and 1 soup. In the end, it turned out that I overestimated my fighting power. At least half of it was not finished. I will be more careful next time. The signature Chen Mapo Tofu was only a small pot, but it was the last to be served. It was soaked in red oil, and the seasoning reminded me of the instant noodles I ate when I was a child. It was amazing. It is said that the best thing about this store is its special tofu. Anyway, my mother went to the vegetable market several times and couldn't buy such delicious tofu. The crispy tofu with batter was sweet and sour, and the tomato sauce used made me think it was the way to make bear paw tofu, but it was not. The taste is also OK. Compared with a table of spicy dishes, this can adjust the taste. The tofu pudding beef fillet is very classic. The beef slices are large and tender, the tofu is smooth, and there are Sanzi. The whole is spicy and spicy, and the portion is sufficient. The tomato three fresh is more like a soup dish, with meat slices, tomato slices and tofu strips. It is still very delicious. I drank a bowl. The taste on the tip of the tongue is like a pig house soaked in a basin as big as a washbasin. Each piece is surrounded by a pile of green peppercorns. This is the most delicious. Although the portion is small, the taste is good and impressive. Mapo fresh pepper fish is actually fish fillet, similar to the way of boiled fish, with a base of vegetarian dishes, the taste is very good, and the portion is full. The dry pot chicken is also a pot of piles, but don’t be scared by the appearance. There are enough potatoes and a little less chicken. The taste is very good, but compared with the dishes made with tofu pudding, it is not so eye-catching. The Sichuan pepper rabbit cubes are deep-fried rabbit meat. Because of the Sichuan pepper, it has a charming peppery and spicy aroma. I think it is very suitable for drinking. I ate a lot of it with chrysanthemum tea. Fuqi Feipian, a typical Sichuan dish, is not bad. The osmanthus honey marinated lotus root is also well done, especially the thick layer of osmanthus sugar sauce, which can be said to be the best dessert to relieve the spiciness. The crispy bamboo shoots and kidneys are the most unsightly of the dishes I ordered. They are not bamboo shoots like wild bamboo shoots, but more like the taste of square bamboo shoots used for cold salad. The fried kidneys are tender and delicious, and there is no smell of mutton. This is a treasure dish, I will order it next time. The stir-fried yellow beef is still very delicious, a dish that meets the standard. The lotus leaf steamed pork is more ordinary, meeting the standard. The health-preserving bone soup is a super large pot, and 14 people didn’t really finish it... I tried to add soup for free a second time, but I didn’t finish the first pot. Sichuan cold noodles, this tastes good, but ordering it really overwhelmed the meal. While we were waiting for the meal, there was a tea art performance. The waiter with a super long teapot made sure to pour a cup of tea for every customer at every table. He had too many tricks, such as white crane wings, sword-drawing style, and sword-carrying style. I think it's super fun, haha. 14 dishes, 1 soup, plus dry food, the actual price is 670 yuan. We ordered a pot of chrysanthemum tea for 68, which is really not worth it. I knew I would drink soup or a bowl of long wonton for each person. But seeing that the average cost per person is less than 60, I think it is really cost-effective. It is not convenient to park here. You can park in the underground parking lot of Huanhuaxi Park opposite

    As an old Chengdu person, I ate Chenma Caotang first. This flagship store often has a queue. This time I came mainly to bring foreign friends to eat. The environment is very good, with an ancient flavor. There is also guzheng accompaniment on the second floor, which is quite a feeling. The service is also very good. The dishes are really Sichuan cuisine. It is indeed suitable for bringing friends from other places to eat. Foreign friends like it very much.

    "Chen Mapo Tofu" is one of the most local specialties in Chinese tofu dishes, and has become a world-famous Sichuan cuisine. This dish has a history of more than 150 years and is the most representative Sichuan cuisine. This dish is characterized by the "burning" method. On the snow-white and tender tofu, brown-red minced beef and green garlic sprouts are dotted, and a circle of translucent red oil is around, like jade inlaid with amber, with a unique flavor of numbing, spicy, hot, tender, crisp, fragrant and fresh.

    I came to visit the Sichuan Museum and happened to eat Chen Mapo across the street. This Chen Mapo Tofu is the flagship store. It is very popular and you have to queue up for dozens of people to eat. The environment inside is very good, and the layout is not cramped. It is very comfortable and cozy. Mapo Tofu is of course a must-order. It is indeed authentic. I didn't finish it because it was too spicy. The garlic pork is also highly recommended. It is difficult to eat authentic this dish in other cities. This is good, large in quantity, and tastes good. In fact, what I want to recommend most is the steamed beef with rice flour. There are a lot of sweet potatoes underneath, and the steamed pork with rice flour on top is very oily. The sweet potatoes absorb the oil, so the beef will not be too greasy. In short, it was a good food experience. It was worth waiting in line for half an hour.

    Overall review | The minimum consumption of the box is 800, but there is a very real ten-person package (888 yuan), and ten people have leftovers. It can be said that it is very real! The reason why this store is recommended is because old Chengdu also recommends it. He said that after reading Du Fu Caotang, he must try the Chen Mapo tofu next to it, because several Chengdus count it as the most authentic! The location is also good, from the door of Du Fu Caotang Qinghua Road, go to the right, take a few steps, cross the road! Taste | Introduce each dish below. The first is cold dumplings, cold dishes appetizers, also help to solve spicy. After all, most of the dishes are spicy. The second is pig ears, which are crispy and spicy, which is very enjoyable. The third is glutinous rice sweet dumplings, which also helps to solve spicy and refreshing. I like it. There is the sweet fragrance of glutinous rice and the fragrance of glutinous rice. The fourth is a couple's lung. Many people have a misunderstanding, thinking that the couple's lungs should have pig lungs, in fact, they are not, they are all meat. I remember that many English translation misunderstandings before, it was still quite funny. Spice is appropriate, delicious! The fifth is garlic mud white meat, almost the meaning of husband and wife lung slices, the taste of Sichuan cuisine, is more garlic, refreshing! I can't eat spicy, I can pass the water, after all, it tastes good. If you can eat spicy, you can eat it directly. The sixth is fried walnuts with bean seedlings, which is also a refreshing dish, which is spicy! The combination of vegetables and walnuts is wonderful. The seventh is the main show, Mapo tofu. It is very good to make a small portion, everyone can taste it, but not everyone has to call rice to match, this is a great point about the design of the amount of dishes. The taste is great, after all, it is a signboard, the name of the store is Chen Mapo tofu. How can you not try the signboard when you enter the store? The eighth is fried shrimp, which is normal operation. The ninth is a dry pot fat intestine, a very authentic dry pot. Although the fat intestines are fat, the individual does not particularly like the things that are too greasy, but the dry pot is just right to oil, which has a different effect. The tenth is the sour soup fat cow. I remember that I often eat Sichuan cuisine. I have some hair blood, sauerkraut fish, etc., and one of them is the sour soup fat cow. The fat cow is delicious, full of sour taste, but it is still a bit spicy. It tastes good. The eleventh one is the pot bar. This one I took is after the performance. In fact, first the plate of the bottom of the pot, then the hot soup and vegetables are poured on it, and the pot is very crispy, crispy and sweet, especially the twelfth road is a big miscellaneous. There is my favorite yellow throat in it, which is half a hair blood. There are beef and so on. This dish is also spicy, it is more troublesome to fish. The thirteenth road is fish. Steamed salmon, spicy and refreshing, added cardamom. The 14th road is a bullfrog. I like it very much, I feel that bullfrogs will be more fat and meat than field chickens. The fifteenth duck soup. Add mushrooms and stew together, strong mellow! The 16th fried beans, very well equipped with wine, the best wine. The 17th meal package is the same as the outside. The 18th, the finishing touch, the clock dumpling, sweet and spicy and strong garlic, can be said to be my favorite! Very delicious, one two dumplings, endless aftertaste! Service | A little bad is not reminding us of the use of chopsticks. The chopsticks are hollow, and you need to put a disposable bamboo chopstick head on. The waiter did not remind you. We thought it was used directly. This point is not particularly satisfactory!

    On the way to the Sichuan Museum, I encountered it. The decoration is very retro and the reputation is very good. I found a place to solve the lunch. The signature Mapo tofu, I ate the feeling of being a small Chinese home, it was so delicious! Spicy and fresh, tofu is not old or tender, the family can't make this taste at all, where is the rice? Pot bar meat slices, toppings sweet and sour, toppings have small fungus, tomato, magnolia slices, pea tip. Pot bar crispy, fried just right. This dish is spicy and appetizing, suitable for all ages. Lotus leaf powder steamed meat, I thought it was the cage powder steamed meat with lotus leaf bottom, the result was a lotus leaf cake, a bit fooled. It tastes good, not sweet, it is a bit spicy, I like it. Spit a groove, the meat of the steamed meat and the white garlic mud meat is the same thick and thin, the steamed meat should have to be thicker to eat. Zhong Shuiyu, my favorite Chengdu snack, was boiled. You must like the transparent kitchen.

    It was almost lunch time from Nianhuaxi and found that the style of this store was very elegant, so I entered the store to find food. The waiter dresses very eye-catching and the environment is very good. Because I don't eat spicy, as long as I have the dragon in the feature, I also ordered crispy tofu, chicken shredded cold noodles, and Beijing sauce shredded pork. A total of 100 yuan, three girls can't finish eating, wasting 3 handwriting.

    Today, my friend came to Chengdu, and we walked into the very familiar Chen Mapo tofu Tsinghua Road store. We booked the card seat in advance, otherwise there would be no seats temporarily. I ordered a few favorite dishes: tea duck, back-pot meat, tofu fish, husband and wife lung slices and vegetables and soup. The per capita consumption is 50 yuan, and the friends are very satisfied with the environment and dishes of Chen Mapo's store.

    I like Chen Mapo Tofu Qinghua Road Store very much. The decoration in the store is very special, reflecting the characteristics of the West Sichuan Bazi and the strong Chengdu flavor: a variety of lanterns, bamboo bird cages, wooden boats hanging in the air, sculptures pushing bean flowers, etc., all of which make people have endless aftertaste, of course, The dishes here are cheap and delicious, attracting countless diners, and there are many people waiting in line for dinner every day until 3 or 4 pm. The restaurant has such a hot business!
