Instagram-friendly 2d Restaurant now open

The concept: 2d Restaurant purports to be "Chicago's first hand-drawn, monochrome, illusionary restaurant" and serves mochi doughnuts and chicken.

The line experience: We waited outside for 45 minutes on Sunday at noon before finally ordering online and picking up our doughnuts.

• Staffers give samples to folks in line to ease the pain.

The social media experience: The cool comic drawings inside make for fun Instagram posts but also keep people lingering, which makes the line long and slow.

The food: We didn't try the chicken, but the mochi doughnuts ($22 for six) taste like chewy glazed pastries from Dunkin'.

• The rich, peanut-buttery Pooh doughnut was the exception.
• On the plus side, their shape does make them easy to pull apart and share.

Bottom line: Good for those with lots of time who are in it for the photos more than the food.
