'Si Chuan Dou Hua Restaurant’s “Ma Po Tofu” uses soft bean curd formulated with a special recipe and has an acclaimed heavy soy taste but a velvety texture. Combined with a spicy minced meat sauce, this dish has flavours that are bold and spicy. Recommended to be eaten with rice for a more balanced flavour, or by itself to experience its subtle numbing spiciness.'

'For one, this version at Si Chuan Dou Hua has a heavier soy taste in the bean curd. The flavours are also a lot bolder and spicier, and definitely advised to be paired with rice for a more balanced flavour. The taste of subtle numbing spiciness is not one easily forgotten.'

'The stir-fried French beans with minced meat and crunchy bits of preserved vegetable was one of the best versions of this common dish we had tried. The French beans were cooked just right to retain their crispness and fresh taste. It was a delicious dish.'
