If there’s one thing Singaporeans take seriously, it’s food. And when the summer heat sets in, it becomes even more important to enjoy meals that not only satisfy the appetite but also bring a little fun to the table. Chen’s Mapo Tofu has stepped up to the plate this season with a new and exciting offer — a specially curated Summer Set for Two, available at only $58.
For those unfamiliar, Chen’s Mapo Tofu is a contemporary dining destination bringing the bold, spicy flavours of Sichuan cuisine into a modern, accessible setting. Known for their signature Mapo Don and other inventive dishes, Chen’s has long been a favourite among spice lovers in Singapore. Now, with this limited-time summer set, they are giving diners even more reason to pay a visit — especially if one appreciates a delicious balance of heat, coolness, and creativity.
Why this Summer Set is Worth It
At $58 for two diners, this promotion is both satisfying and pocket-friendly — something quite rare for premium dining locations such as Paragon and The Star Vista. But what truly makes this deal stand out is the quality and variety included in the set.
Here’s a breakdown of what diners can expect:
-
Mapo Don (マーボ丼): This is Chen’s signature dish. It’s everything people love about Mapo Tofu — spicy, aromatic, and comforting — served over fluffy rice. The umami-rich sauce coats each grain perfectly.
-
Kurobuta Cold Ramen (黒豚冷やしラーメン): Ideal for the summer season, this cold noodle dish features premium Kurobuta pork, tender and well-seasoned, combined with a refreshing broth that cools and satisfies in equal measure.
-
Kou Shui Ji (四川よだれ鶏): Also known as “Mouthwatering Chicken,” this dish lives up to its name. Sliced poached chicken is served in a pool of aromatic chilli oil and spices, creating layers of flavour that range from tangy and spicy to slightly sweet.
-
Mushroom Fries (キノコのから揚げ): A vegetarian-friendly treat, the mushroom fries are crispy, addictive, and seasoned with just enough salt to keep diners going back for more.
-
Szechuan Century Egg & Tofu (ピータンとナスの四川唐辛子和え): A dish that combines the unique creaminess of century egg with the cooling effect of tofu and a zesty Szechuan-style dressing. It’s bold yet balanced.
-
Two Mango Mirage Drinks (マンゴーミラージュ): No meal is complete without a refreshing drink, and this sweet, chilled mango beverage ties everything together. Smooth and slightly tropical, it works well against the spiciness of the other dishes.
A Well-Rounded Culinary Experience
This Summer Set is not just a collection of dishes thrown together — it’s a thoughtfully crafted menu designed to play with temperature, texture, and taste. The set moves between hot and cold, crisp and soft, spicy and soothing. This makes it especially enjoyable for those who like variety without having to order à la carte and risk an expensive bill.
Furthermore, the portion size is just right for two. Whether people are on a casual lunch break, catching up with a friend, or planning a dinner date, this meal strikes the right balance between indulgence and satisfaction.
Why Visit Chen’s Mapo Tofu Now
The summer set is only available for a limited time and strictly for dine-in customers. That means it’s not something one can just order online or grab on the go — it’s an experience best enjoyed in person, seated inside Chen’s stylish and welcoming space.
Located in two highly accessible and popular spots — Paragon Shopping Centre on Orchard Road and The Star Vista at Buona Vista — Chen’s Mapo Tofu provides a central and comfortable location to escape the heat and dig into this seasonal offering.
-
Paragon provides a chic and upscale dining atmosphere, perfect after a day of retail therapy or before catching a show at nearby venues.
-
The Star Vista is popular with families and those working in the Buona Vista and One-North area, making it ideal for lunch meetups or casual after-work meals.
Both outlets offer the same Summer Set experience, so whether people are in town or in the west, they’ll find this deal waiting for them.
Affordable Indulgence in a Premium Setting
With rising costs all around, it’s refreshing to find a deal that offers genuine value. This $58 Summer Set doesn’t cut corners. The dishes feature quality ingredients — such as Kurobuta pork and imported spices — and are prepared with the same care and attention that diners expect from Chen’s.
When one considers what it might cost to order each of these items individually, the savings become clear. More importantly, it provides an opportunity to try a wider variety of their offerings without breaking the bank.
The Perfect Way to Embrace Summer Dining
Singapore’s summer heat can be relentless, but it also invites opportunities for cool dining options and lighter, refreshing meals. Chen’s Summer Set fits perfectly into this seasonal shift. It keeps the spice, but balances it with cold noodles, tofu-based starters, and a sweet drink to round things off.
Whether people are loyal fans of Sichuan cuisine or just starting to explore bold, peppery flavours, this seasonal set offers something memorable. Plus, it encourages a sit-down experience — a moment to pause, savour, and enjoy a thoughtfully composed meal.
How to Make the Most of It
This offer is only available for dine-in, and for a limited time only starting 18 June 2025. Reservations are recommended, especially for dinner slots or weekends, as the popularity of Chen’s Mapo Tofu tends to draw a steady crowd.
Guests are encouraged to head over early or book in advance through the restaurant’s website or via direct contact with the outlets at Paragon and The Star Vista.
Final Thoughts
Deals like this don’t come around every day. In a city like Singapore where dining can be expensive, finding a quality two-person set meal for under $60 in a reputable restaurant is a true bargain. More than just a promotion, Chen’s Summer Set is an invitation to explore and enjoy the warmer months through food — with dishes that challenge and comfort at the same time.
Don’t miss this chance to experience a carefully curated Sichuan summer feast. Gather a friend, reserve a table, and take a moment to indulge in something a little different. Whether it’s the spice, the variety, or the refreshing drinks, there’s plenty to enjoy this season — the Chen’s way.
