Special thanks to The Infatuation and Hannah Albertine for their shout out again to our mapo tofu dish! We couldn’t be prouder to be featured and would love to work on a “tofu-themed opera” based on the dish! • “When we last ate Hwa Yuan’s mapo tofu, we pretty much stopped paying attention to everything else in front of us (including our own mother visiting from Maryland, and the glorious Peking duck being carved tableside on the East Broadway sidewalk). This dish has its own narrative arc. It introduces itself with mouth-vibrating mala heat, and then transitions to an emotional second act with overwhelming funk from the fermented broad bean paste and garlicky pork. We’re not saying there should be a tofu-themed opera based on Hwa Yuan’s dish, but we’re not not saying it either.” • https://www.theinfatuation.com/new-york/guides/the-best-mapo-tofu-in-nyc • @infatuation @han_nuh_duh @hwa.yuan.nyc #mapotofu #tofu #chinesefood #chinatown #theinfatuation #food #foodie #foodofinstagram #szechuanfood #sichuanfood #eatlocal #nyc
