Read about Chen's and always wanted to try! Finally got a chance at Jewel and I was not disappointed. I think it's cheaper than the Downtown outlet because this is in a food court.

Was feeling greedy so I ordered the set which came with half mapo don and half dry dandan mian (you have a choice of don and dry/soup noodles), a side of Sichuan popcorn chicken, soup and bottled drink (not pictured).

The mapo don was yum!!! Tasty, with lots of bits of minced meat, and that tinge of peppercorn and numbing taste on the tongue (but not overly so). They use Japanese rice and it was soooooo comforting to just use my spoon to eat the dish. Love it.

The noodles had a different kind of texture, I dont know how to describe it. I prefer those with more bite. It also had a peanut taste. It was a good variation from an entire meal of mapo don but otherwise it was okay-only for me.

Popcorn chicken didnt really have a spicy taste but I like that they fry it on order so it's hot and crispy.

Oh did I mention that theres a reserved space for Chen's customers in the food court? No more jostling for seats or even sharing of table! Definitely try this if you're there.
