Therefore, the restaurant was crowned as "Chen Mapo Tofu Shop". In the late Qing Dynasty, Chen Mapo's tofu was listed as a famous food in Chengdu.

2. Husband and wife lung slices

Famous flavor dishes in Chengdu. According to legend, in the 1930s, near Shaocheng, Chengdu, there was a man named Guo Chaohua. Together with his wife, he was engaged in manufacturing and selling cold beef and lung slices. The couple personally operated, walked the streets and sold them in baskets. Because of the fine production and unique flavor, the cold lung tablets they operate are deeply loved by people. In order to distinguish it from ordinary lung slice stalls, people call it "husband and wife lung slices". After opening the store, we paid more attention to materials, and replaced the original single lung with cattle, heart, tongue, belly and scalp. The quality of the second sister rabbit Ding Yi was improving day by day. In order to maintain the original flavor of this dish, the name "Husband and wife lung slices" has been used ever since.

Dandan Noodles is a famous snack in Chengdu. Roll the flour into noodles, cook it, and scoop in the fried pork powder. The cooked noodles are very thin, the marinade is crisp and fragrant, salty and slightly spicy, and the aroma is tangy and very tasty. This dish is widely circulated in Sichuan and is often used as a banquet snack. The most famous Dandan Noodles is Chen Baobao Dandan Noodles, which was founded by a street vendor named Chen Baobao in Zigong at 184 1. It was originally named after peddling along the street with a burden on its back. Dandan Noodles, who used to walk around in Chengdu, used a copper pot to separate two compartments, one for cooking noodles and the other for stewing chicken or hooves. At present, most of Dandan Noodles in Chongqing, Chengdu, Zigong and other places have changed to stores, but they still maintain their original characteristics, especially Dandan Noodles in Chengdu.
