Anthony Bourdain, now I know why you love this place. Too bad for me that I'm not white like every person in this bar. 3 little Asian girls and 1 Asian guy.. yeah we kind of got some stares. I've come to the conclusion that all the Asians go clubbing on the Strip and never venture out to the real bars in Las Vegas. Double Down is a real bar with some silly drinks.
I of course had to try the Ass Juice and bacon martini Hey, the Ass Juice wasn't that bad! It kind of tasted like stale Skittles or like old apple juice almost. I guess that doesn't sound so great when described... but when you're trying a drink named Ass Juice, it tastes a shit tons better than it sounds. The bacon martini on the other hand... that was a doozy. I could feel my stomach quiver a bit when the awesome bartender pulled out a bottle of vodka with strips of bacon inside and topped with a nice layer of bacon fat. It tastes just like it sounds: vodka with a touch of bacon. And fat. Don't forget the fat!
Great music, great atmosphere, cool bartenders, cool people. You can't ask for more. Except don't be fooled by the sign that reads "$5 ass juice, 2/$9!" If you don't get it... you really need to take a math class!
