“There's only one Master Chen's, Ninjago's number one noodle house.” |
— Chen in "The Invitation" |
Mr. Chen's Noodle House is a restaurant in Ninjago City. It is the number one restaurant in the city and popular among the citizens such as Cole and Dareth. During Chen's ownership of the Noodle House, it was supplied by goods produced in the factory on his personal island which are brought over by the ferry to the mainland.
Following the defeat of Master Chen, Skylor took ownership of the noodle house, personally managing the restaurant in Ninjago City.

LEGO.com Description
Master Chen's Noodle House
Master Chen’s is the most popular and successful restaurant chain on NINJAGO island. It’s famous for serving the best noodles anywhere. Just the wonderful smell of the delicacies served within is enough to lure people in off the street. What no one knew was that the smiling owner of the chain, Master Chen, was in reality a master criminal and his noodles were made by slave labor. When Skylor took over the family business, she kept the company name, but changed entirely the unethical and illegal way the business was run.[1]

Trivia
- Chen's Hall of Villainy exhibit suggests that the recipe for the Noodles may actually be of Serpentine origin, or conversely merely his own invention.
- It is unknown where the Noodle House now gets their imports from since nobody goes to Chen's island anymore.
- The Puffy Potsticker is a very popular treat. It was canceled in The Tournament of Elements, but was added again when Skylor took over. It was later used to interrogate Ghoultar in "Kingdom Come".
- A delivery man from the Noodle House appears in Jay's "Meet the Ninja" video.
