When GN Chan and Faye Chen opened Double Chicken Please, the idea of cocktails that taste like food was still a novelty in New York City. Almost immediately, the bar captured local and national attention—and soon after, international acclaim. Within a year, Double Chicken Please rocketed onto the World’s 50 Best list, and today it draws lines from the moment the doors open until last call.

GN and Faye sit down with Adam to share the story behind the bar’s meteoric rise, tracing their journey from aspiring flair bartenders to taking a leap of faith that brought them from Taiwan to New York City. They talk about risk, creativity, and what it really took to build one of the most influential cocktail bars in the world.
