At 2am on a Friday night, dessert options are pretty limited but luckily you can trust Double Chin to be open. Located in Boston's Chinatown - Double Chin seems like the go-to place for late night munchies. The macaron ice cream sandwich was a whopping $7 and so not worth. The strawberry ice cream was good but the macaron was hard while also being a bit hollow. Macarons are supposed to have that smooth outer shell while being soft and squishy on the inside. Double Chin's macarons were hard all over which made the sandwich pretty hard to bite into. No wonder they served it on a cutting board with a knife! I took a couple bites, gave up and just ate the ice cream. My friends ordered the Princess Peach shaved ice and enjoyed it. I tried it myself but it was a bit too sweet and syrup-y for my taste although the texture of the ice was nice. The toppings (boba, peach, strawberry, mochi and strawberry ice cream) were solid though. read more

It feels weird giving this place only 3 stars but I feel like its deserved based on my experience today. I have no reason to give it anything higher than 3 stars EXCEPT for its staff. Staff were very nice and helpful and was probably the best thing about our visit today. Everything was just very mid. Before we came, we saw this place online and saw how trendy all the food looked and while the menus did seem to reflect this trendy/instagram-able aesthetic, the presentation left us a little underwhelmed. Prices are very expensive especially for the portion sizes and would be outrageous if they were not "quirky" fusion dishes. Quality was very iffy. The double chin-wich was okay but definitely not worth the $12 I paid for it. The chili popcorn chicken was $13 and was also definitely not worth the price. It was very hard and doughey and I could barely taste any spice or chicken flavor. The only thing that was semi-reasonably priced were the shaved ice deserts but even that was somehow messed up. They must have run out of strawberry/mango ice cream because they put chocolate ice cream on top even though in the menu descriptions it was strawberry or mango ice cream. Not only were we not told this but the chocolate ice cream DID NOT go well with the sweetness of the rest of the shaved ice. Sure, some people may appreciate the contrasting flavors of rich chocolate and sweet fruity flavors; HOWEVER, I DO NOT. It did not taste good and I had to carefully separate them in order to not mix the flavors even more. All in all, a very average quality meal at best. High prices were not worth it. Maybe we just came on an off day because everyone else seems to rate it highly but our experience today was just not it unfortunately. Sorry :/ read more

I was really excited to come to this place! Their presence on social media (especially Instagram) is incredible - they do a great job of making their food look beautiful and delicious. I was a little disappointed, to say the least. The service was a bit slow and we had to repeat our order to our server a few times because she forgot (she was the only server at the time). I got the tofu curry rice - it was an bit bland, which made it difficult to eat. My boyfriend got the pork dumplings, he said they were good, but he's had better. Overall, the food is okay, but definitely lacks flavor. It's not expensive, which is great, but I don't know if I'd come back here again. There's a lot of hype around this place, but honestly, I didn't have the best experience. Granted, I didn't try their desserts, which they're famous for, so I can't speak to that part of their menu. read more

Food is pricey for the quality you get. Quality isn't great... only good things are friendly staff and quick service.

Double Chin is one of those restaurants in Boston which I can never get enough of. I don't know if it's the quirkiness or the extensive menu or my insatiable sweet tooth, but it has become one of my favorite places to eat when I simply need to spoil myself. I've come to Double Chin for dessert, brunch (and dessert) and dinner (and dessert). Do you see a pattern forming...? I've ordered the infamous cube toast the former two times, and each time I left feeling full and gleeful. It's an overload of everything but the kitchen sink and an experience you need to enjoy firsthand, but in summation - tons of flavors, warm sweet toast meets cold ice-cream, and Pocky (duh). As for brunch, I ordered the Katsu Bo Lo Baowich. The sweetness of the pineapple bao bun complemented by the savory pork katsu and fried egg was impeccable. Perfect balance! My endeavor into dinnertime was met with the Skillet "Mac" & Cheese and the Tomato Pork Chop Rice. The mac and cheese was actually made with thick rice noodles and bacon, and holy crap it was incredible. Talk about taking a classic dish and turning it up many notches. The latter dish was everything I thought it would be - savory pork chops over a bed of white rice with sweet tomato sauce topped with cheese. If your mouth is watering, good. That's the appropriate reaction. Double Chin has managed to master every meal of the day, including the in-between meals (dessert - again, duh). You legit can't go wrong with anything here, and I can't wait to go back and explore more of their menu! read more

You have to try Double Chin in Boston's Chinatown. I was super excited to try the eclectic Asian cuisine that I had heard about. We got there and ordered the scallion pancakes, orange chicken, and the daily farm fresh vegetables with garlic. They were all so good. I highly recommend the scallion pancakes. I'm a huge fan of them in general but Double Chin has some of the best I've had. They also take pride in their meal presentations (so they are totally Instagram worthy!) I've heard their brunch is awesome and I'm still dying to try their Cube Toast. It's pretty much a huge fried French toast with all the fixings you could imagine. I've had the chance to get to know Gloria Chin, one of the owners. She's great and takes pride in her food and restaurant. The dishes are creative and definitely a must try if you're in the Boston area. read more

I've come to this place a couple of times, but I decided to write a review after discovering my favorite dish at the restaurant. The portuguese chicken and rice is out of this world. Savory and filling with bits of chicken, onions, egg, rice, and a TON of cheese cooked in a delicious sauce. Need I say more? Get it!!! You will definitely not regret it. I've also tried other dishes including the poutine, double chin fried rice,the cubed toast,and the seafood crispy noodles all of which are solid dishes. I love the creativity of this restaurant as well as the wide variety of alcohol they offer. The downside of this restaurant is that there is a strange odor upon entering, as well as the service is lacking. I had to flag down the waiter numerous times and my water was unfilled throughout. read more

Fun drinks and good food but a bit overpriced. The server was very attentive and the restaurant was cute

I believe this is the only HK style cafe in Chinatown in Boston. This place reminds me of LA and HK. They have a lot of good options on the menu. I usually order the tomato pork chop rice. I like how there is a lot of melted cheese on top! This dish definitely hits home. You can't really order that anywhere else. Their portion is really generous as well! It can definitely feed 2 people. The service is also quick and fast. They also have a good lunch menu that comes with one dish and a hot drink for a reasonable price. You can add $1 for a cold drink. I have tried the honey sriracha chicken rice and royal fried rice for lunch. They are both great options! They also have interesting drinks on the menu. I have only tried the flavored soju. Oh man.. was it strong... They have interesting and unique desserts here. They have brick toast with ice cream with an explosion of fruits and other sweets. They also have shaved ice and HK egg waffles. I have yet to try their desserts here. I'll try to save room for desserts one of these days and try their desserts! The good thing is they open late too, so if you have late night cravings, you can definitely come here to grab a bite to eat! read more

Was very excited to try this restaurant with my Mom after scouting them out on instagram. Very disappointing. The "sandwich" with scallion pancake had no scallion flavor or fragrance. the filling was lackluster too. The fried tofu with peanut sauce had no saltiness, and other flavors were non-existent. The service was decent but the ambiance was underwhelming. Will not be back. read more

Double Chin seems pretty much like a fusion restaurant, and those tend to not have great reps (especially for the different kinds of food that you get. However, Double Chin really steps up its game in comparison to all of those. The menu is abundant--you have so many choices to pick from. I have come here several times in the past few weeks, and the food is always decently amazing. Some of the best I recommend: - Poutine - Kimchi Alfredo - Portugese Chicken Rice - Matcha Ma Call It (Brick Toast) The drinks I've also tried are the Watermelon Bomber and the Fish in a Bowl. I actually really like the Fish in the Bowl (lychee and gummies on the bottom)! You get more of the alcoholic taste, but the watermelon bomber is great if you want a nice refresher (with a little bit of booze). Overall, definitely a great experience (especially for those of you who want some unique foods to post on Instagram). Will definitely be back again! read more

Yesterday I stumbled upon this from yelp pictures. It was A HUGE disappointment. The my baobao (manto) with double was horrible. It was so hard you can hear me crunch. We didn't finish it, alsoooo we got the watermelon soju, I didn't taste any watermelon so not worth it. It was clumpy and it was pink. The pro side, It is very spacious and cute decoration. Tip: They don't have the green tea pancake with ice cream on top is only on weekends. read more

Trendy place that focuses for people who looking to have a new pic on instagram. Most of the sweets here are instagram worthy. And there are a swing chair to take pics with as well. We are not an exception, only here to take pic of the toast cube. The verdict? While instagram worthy, the toast was good but not amazing, not for $15 price tag. We wanted to get another dessert bc we felt bad to get a table just for 1 thing. However, we couldn't finish the thing, even with 3 people. And it took quite some time for the dessert to come out too. The service are very good though. The staff was friendly, fast and polite. read more

This place is super cute and seems like a great late night eat and for drinks. The portions are large and filling, however the food seems a little underseasoned. I tried a few shared appetizers and bits from different entrees. The appetizers were delicious, we ordered the sesame cauliflower and fries. The entrees were a little dissapointing though with the lack of flavor. I really liked the menu here, it includes pictures with most of the descriptions and there is big variety of foods to cater to everyone's needs and has some creative fun things as well. The drinks menu looked great, I would come back here to try the drinks. Overall the vibe is fun and seems like the place to be for an evening of drinking and socializing. I would recommend this for the atmosphere, but no specifically for the food. read more

Honestly out of this world. Got the tofu peanut skewers and easily the best peanut sauce I've had to date - and tofu was prepared perfectly. Also got the peanut noodle salad special and it was incredible - massive portion as well. Will be addicted moving forward read more

Ive been wanting to go to Double Chin pretty much since its opened. Their famous cube toast is all over Instagram and they mac and cheese looks like the cheesiest I've ever seen. I had a chance to try their salt and pepper wings, the poutine, kimchi alfredo, and portuguese chicken rice as well as the matcha cube toast. Honestly everything was SO GOOD. My favorite was the rice because of how cheesey it was. Who doesnt want cheesey rice? The kimchi alfredo was also excellent. Not too heavy but still very flavorful. The poutine is also one of their best sellers. Now onto the cube toast. HOLY MOLY. Get it. Just get it. It's french toast stuffed with ice cream and fruit and this one also have red bean which I loooved. He best part is using the bream to mop up the melty ice cream. Keep in mind that this is definitely a sharing dessert! Or not, I don't judge. read more

This place is really all about an IG moment. There are so many things I wanted to try but they all came in extra huge servings so they are really meant to be shared. I ordered the spam/taro fries and a tuna sandwich. The fries were great but I must say that you must eat the fries at a ratio of 1 spam and 1 taro. The taro alone is not as tasty. The aioli dips are great and I enjoyed my meal. I will def be back to try some of the booze & desserts. read more

Came because of the Instagram appeal. It definitely delivered. All the foods were aesthetically great. The fusion Asian fusion had twists I've never seen before. I had an Asian mule and the duck. The mule was similar to other ginger beer drinks I've had at other places. It was fine. The duck was really well made. I don't know what they make it with but it was really flavorful. It's definitely a departure from the more traditional cuisine of Chinatown. If you want a great photo with your meal you should check it out. read more

Arrived Friday night/ Sat Morning and put in my order at 2:18am for Scallion Pancakes and Salt n Pepper Wings. My scallion pancake came out within 15minutes but waited about 45mins and never received my wings. I had asked to get water 2 times but they never brought I had to go-to the back counter to get the water myself. At this time it was 3am I was fedup and decided to go up to register and tell them I never received my order of wings. Than the middle aged woman probably the owner at the registered screamed at me accusing me of eating all the wings and pointed to the empty basket to the table next to me. A younger server than asked another server and apparently they dropped it off at the wrong table. She gave me the most evil look as if it was my fault. I understand that everyone makes mistakes but it's not right to accuse a customer and screaming at them for eating all of something when I never got my order of wings. In most situations like this I wouldn't leave a tip but me being a good person I still left them a tip. Also FYI after midnight they charge an auto gratuity of 18% The younger female server with glasses changed the bill for me and I told her I didn't want to have the auto grat on the bill because I didn't receive my food I ordered and she kindly removed it for me but I still left a tip. Im normally okay with Asian places with good food and bad service but this place or the middle aged woman that worked the register should make sure she. Gets her facts right before accusing and going off on a paying customer!!! read more

I love myself some fun restaurants, especially in a place like Boston where I feel like the restaurants are relatively standard. Double Chin brings in some fun creativity to the heart of Boston; located in Chinatown, this clean, airy restaurant is great for both interesting food and fun dessert! We only ordered the Hong Kong toast ($20), which you should share with at least 2 other people. I usually don't like sweets and I loved the toast itself; the strange cereals and Mochi weren't my favorite but they added to the look of the dessert. The restaurant also has fun innovative food and drinks such as a soju roulette. I will be back with my (probably Asian - haha) friends! read more

Awesome! Was here tonight with a few friends and the service absolutely made the meal. I sadly didn't catch her name, but the waitress working tonight (with IMPECCABLE EYELASHES might I add) was beyond friendly and helpful with the menu. Constantly checked on us, offered advice, and even subbed out my drink when it wasn't to my liking. Not super loud, and pretty chill ambiance for a Friday night. If nothing else, come here for the staff and the booze. Super creative drinks, and the boozy boba is to die for. read more

I love being in the Navy because I get to travel and try different foods. I've been wanting to come here since I saw it on Phantom Gourmet last year and it did not disappoint. Came in for brunch before catching a movie. I ordered the 'Crab me Benny one more time'. It's a different take on eggs benedict (I think) that is spot on. The soft shell crab, poached egg, house slaw on a friend mantou was delicious. It also comes with avocado and their own hollandaise sauce that compliment the dish. I wish the avocado was fresher because you can see that it was exposed to the air for a bit because of the brown spots. I know how hard it is to keep avocado fresh after it being cut so it didn't bother me but I don't know about anyone else. The house potatoes were a little over done but still tasted good. I ordered the Bloody Gangnam style to drink. I just started drinking Bloody Mary's (I prefer a Bloody Maria. Tequila not Vodka) and I can honestly say it's one of the best in the city hands down. A great place to eat with a friendly staff. Definitely will be back to try their other dishes. read more

I would suggest changing the name to double No. I recently stopped in for takeout, I had high hopes for this little spot in the heart of chinatown after a nice spotlight on them on tv. Sadly this place was a big disappointment the food was greasy and definitely not fresh, there was also No flavor at all. I considered going back to ask for my money back and return the "food" but was convinced not to do so. In this era of so many good/wonderful places that have succomed due to the pandemic. It's a wonder that this place still survives. I cannot even say it was Mediocre that is even giving too much credit. AS THE DIONNE WARRICK song put it best-if you see this place walking down the street WALK ON BY.....WALK ON BY.....my advice to the owners/management there; c'mon do better or else why open a business?? read more

Double Chin is my friend's go-to restaurant so when her sister and I were in town, this was definitely on our list for dinner. I was originally going to give them three stars, but if you skip down to *story time* you can read why I gave them the four stars. This restaurant has a very cute cafe decor and they pretty much sell everything. You can get wings, sandwiches, noodles, bubble tea, and all types of desserts here. Because my friends and I were ABSOLUTELY going to have the matcha green tea french toast sundae we decided to get three plates to save room for dessert. We ordered the following: 1. scallion pancakes 2. Kimchi waffle fries: 3. A bowl of beef noodles. The scallion pancakes were thin and had a light crunch. They were tasty and unlike any pancake I've ever had. My favorite dish was the kimchi waffle fries(Poutine). The waffle fries were surprisingly very crispy and not soggy at all with the kimchi. The bowl of beef noodles was not my favorite at all. It was very bland and it had a smelly odor. The bowl was not very well put together even for a build your own type of dish. When we finished the three plates we went ahead and ordered the matcha ma call it (a matcha green tea french toast sundae). While placing our order, the cashier (not our server) comes by our table and gives us the check. I'm not sure why she was trying to rush us out since it was still 1.5 hours until they closed and there was at least 6 tables open. We clarified with her that we had actually ordered dessert. Our server quickly came over and apologized saying she had place our dessert order and it was a mistake. Of course the matcha ma call it was everything that I enjoy in dessert: ice cream, a sweet pastry, and lots of motchi and berries. I would have given this place 5 stars for just for this dessert. *Story time* While trying to finish the enormous plate of deliciousness we hear a very loud crash. We turn around and the four guys who were sitting behind us somehow dropped 3 of their 4 mason jars (aka the water cups). Was it by accident? Dunno. Did they apologize? Nope. Did they look like they were sorry, but were too embarrassed to apologized? NOPE. They nonchalantly left as if nothing had happened. Because our tables were so close, a lot of the glass flew to our side and under our table. Our server came over immediately to apologize and quickly cleaned up all the glass. The staff was very professional and took care of what they had to do. They didn't curse anyone out or were frustrated by the situation. Although, in the beginning, I had mix feelings about this place, in the end I was very pleased with their customer service. Next time I'm in Boston I will return to try their extensive dessert menu. read more

Got into town late on a Sunday. Everything where I'm staying closed early. I settled for delivery to my hotel room. I'm glad I did. The udon seafood soup was incredible. Light chili oil with a nice light spicy kick. The kung pao chicken was great. I'm sure the pork dumplings could have been great if they put the soy ginger sauce in the bag. That's the reason for missing one star. Other than that, great. read more

This place is awesome! My friends and I have come here on multiple occasions and can always find something new to try on the menu. We've gotten the veggie spring roles (they were eh), lobster rangoons (good), poutine fries (very good), sriracha honey popcorn chicken (amazing) and the Peking Duck fries (good). On top of the food, the drinks are soo fun and funky. We've gotten the "Under the sea" fish tank drink. It tasted good, but was so unbelievably sugary we couldn't finish it. My boyfriend felt a little sick after this one drink. Other than that, the mega mojito, adult capri funs, and soju roulette have all been great!! This place gets real busy on weekend nights so I would suggest getting there a little early! Overall, would recommend for good food and drinks with a funky atmosphere! Next stop is brunch here! read more

This place is definitely a small hit but and mostly a miss. I give them props for sticking out with a very creative fusion to asian food and instagramable desserts and such but they dont seem to focus so much on quality and service. First of all, their menus were confusing. They have different prices on them from the others. Obviously the more expensive ones are updated but still. It threw me off when we got the check. Had cube toast first opened. Thought it was amazing years ago when the bread was actually the best part how it was fried, crispy, and so soft in the inside while soaked in syrup. Yesterday night it tasted so chewy, looked fried but didnt taste like it, looked like fried tofu you'd see at a hot pot restaurant and the ice cream was the best part to make it edible. They seem to try to sell left over food. luckily this dish fed the 5 of us and was only 18 bucks. Speaking of that, other friend bought ramen crusted fried chicken. Seems creative but it came out weirdly fast. It came out in a little over 5 minutes after ordering. and as expected, it was quite hot on the outside but cutting it and getting to the middle, it was luke warm. It was probably reheated with an air fryer or something. Not only that, the service was pretty crap where you see the staff sitting around and talking to each other while the person at the register was just watching a drama on his phone. I had to keep going up to them to ask for things. I understand there were only like 4 tables taken in the restaurant but I expected more effort. I honestly did like this place for many other dishes in the past but it would take a while for me to go back. read more

Came here late for food on a weekend night. Couldn't believe that they stay open until 4 a.m. in the morning! I was in the mood for something salty so while everyone else ordered sweet items, I opted to go for the Hawaiian fried rice. I'm a huge fan of pineapple fried rice and spam so this was a natural choice for me. Hawaiian Fried Rice $10.00: I'm a huge stickler for the consistency of rice in fried rice. I'm not a big fan of mushy rice so this was perfect. The saltiness of the spam and the sweetness of the pineapple worked very well together. The rice wasn't too greasy either like some Chinese places like to do. The fried rice was seasoned pretty good and they gave you an ample amount of food. I had a good amount of leftover and I think that the fried rice actually tasted better as a leftover for some reason. read more

We found this place on Instagram before we visited Boston and decided we wanted to stop in. When we arrived at the restaurant, we were a little hesitant... a little dated and not so nice looking, but we decided to go in anyways. We sat in the back at a high top, not the most comfortable but it did the job. We started with drinks and were dying to try this extravagant Bloody Mary that they featured, but an hour into our lunch it still hadn't arrived. They mentioned that the person who makes them was new and she was having a hard time...... ?? Anyways we cancelled that, bummed we didn't get to try it. We got the kimchi fried rice. Wasn't awful, but wasn't great. Very bland. Dumped sriracha on it and everyone knows that anything with sriracha is amazing. Spam fries definitely caught our attention so we had to order those. They were actually pretty good and they were served right in the spam container that they came out of so we thought that was adorable. Next we had the chow mein with beef. Same as the fried rice... pretty bland but sriracha gave it a nice kick. To conclude our meal we ordered the cube toast which is essentially what brought us into this establishment. This was probably one of the best things that we had. It was so sweet and savory and a great way to finish off a meal. If you go here this is definitely something you want to save room for! We loved the name double chin because we're big foodies and always joke we are going to end up with double chins..... however we found out the name was derived from the owners last names which are both Chin, giving the name Double Chin. HAH. Still a great name! xoxo @Blondeswhoeat read more

A lot of things on the menu look pretty insane, but I came for one thing and one thing only: the egg waffle breakfast sandwich (it's not called that on the menu, it's called something else, I forget what exactly). The waffle was good, a little sweet, I would have liked it to be a little browner and crispier though. Good mix of flavors and textures, savory and sweet, crunchy and soft. It comes with what look like home fries except they're not potatoes, they're some other kind of root vegetable, and they're juuuuuust a little sweet, which was nice. I had one of the buns which was meh. Not really worth $4. The cup of coffee was HUGE though which I liked. read more

So I didn't end up at this place expecting gourmet food but I think a few reviews have left a bad wrap for this little whole in the wall. The waitress was charming and sweet, gave her recommendations, which I always appreciate, and was running around like a mad woman all while keeping a smile. This is a place for Hong Kong style snacks. Not gourmet, not extravagant, nor anything above and beyond but some GREAT street food! It is a great experience if you want to see great Hong Kong inspired snacks and fusion desserts. I enjoyed it. Can't complain! Curry squid was great, charred edamame was very tasty and the HK style French toast was divine. Enjoy it for what it is. This place is a little gem. read more

Double chin is great! The cafe is open until 4am, it has lively, mainstream music and jenga to play! The interior is has an open floor plan, there are long tables/benches for large groups to sit at and even a little wooden swing in the corner - great for pictures/sitting and chatting! The service is okay. We got to place our orders 10-15 minutes after sitting down and the waiter recommended their poutine - waffle fries, pork belly, kimchi, cheese, with a crumbled seaweed and sesame topping (fantastic!!). But, after delivering the food, the waiter did not really come by again to refill water and check on us. We had to wave down the waiter for a second bottle of soju and for the check. The food here was fantastic! The poutine was more than enough for three people to share! The WAFFLE (!!!) fries were crispy. The kimchi added a crunch and lots of flavor! Their cheese must have been lightly salted.. but it was perfectly melted and very savory! I got a matcha tres leches which represented everything I loved in my childhood - red bean, grass jelly, green tea ice cream and condensed milk. It was sweet but not overly sweet! Finally, their soju was amazing! We had a lychee flavored bottle which tasted very much like lychee and it came with these cute little half shot glasses. Overall, this is a great place for any time of the day! Late night snacks and games or an afternoon with a friend! read more

There is truly nothing like cube toast. Even if this was the only thing they served, it would be worth the visit. Definitely being a friend or 3 because you won't be able to finish alone (though you'll want to)! But that's not - alcoholic Capri suns and unique dishes galore add to be found here, too. There's something for everyone. read more

Despite hearing that the service was a little slow, orders came out wrong, or drinks weren't consistent (they just opened! shall we cut them some slack?)...I had a great experience! I came here on a Sunday late noon with four other people. We were immediately seated and there were a good amount of people already there. We just ate pho (don't judge) around the corner and decided to check out Double Chin for the popular menu item, "Mac" N Cheese ($6), and some other desserts: Matcha Tres Leches Grass Jelly ($5), Double Chin Ice Cream Sandwich ($5), HK Style French Toast ($6), Avocado Smoothie ($4.50). Our food came out in less than 10minutes. The "Mac" N Cheese is truly unique and an interesting spin off of your traditional comfort food. It's made with wide rice noodles, lots of cheese, bacon (everything with bacon just takes that much better), scallion, and panko. The panko is a nice touch! It was served in a cute shell shaped plate. The portion is huge for $6! Definitely worth getting. My friend who doesn't like cheese actually enjoyed the dish and recommended it to me. That says a lot. I got the Match Tres Leches Grass Jelly drink and it was just as the name described: matcha milk, two heaping scoops of green tea ice cream, condensed milk, red bean and grass jelly. Great combo of ingredients. Double Chin Ice Cream Sandwich is made of crispy mantou buns with a choice of ice cream. We went with green tea. I didn't get to try this but my friend really like the mantou. HK Style French Toast is made of peanut butter, topped with red bean and condensed milk. I'm not a big peanut butter fan but I was pleased with this dish. The peanut butter wasn't overpowering and there was just enough red bean sweetness to balance out the PB and the right amount of condensed milk so it wasn't soggy. $6 is not a bad price either! Avocado smoothie was a little watered down. Our server provided us the check when we were ready. Overall, I would recommend Double Chin. They're open late and I think this place would be great with satisfying late night munchies. Cute decor and the menus are fun. read more
