Shake Shack

oh yeah! the burger was v good, cherry pepper relish abounded, I think we both agreed that unmalted milkshake was richer and more flavorful than the malted one (I couldn't taste the malt at all!), it was an excellent meal. Perhaps not worth $13 for a burger + a shake, but possibly worth it for a burger, a shake, and (free) fries.

Between free fries and Quizzo it is very certain that these two #chillburgerbros will be Shake Shacking again in the near future

"Quizzo Night At Shake Shack" - Hot Drexel Students f/ Quizmaster Chris

my double cheeseburger was, if anything, a lil too rich/meaty and would go for single next time. unmalted strawberry shake was VG, fries, as seems to be the trend here, were overcooked skins, shackodog was p good, overall p good but no supermacs

My fries were lukewarm and soggy but flavorful but also way too short and thinly cut for my taste. You kind of had to pluck clusters of them.

excellent summation, y

i had the cheese fries once they were p good

i was biking home from work yday and I started craving shake shack real bad

i really hope thursday shake shack quizzo becomes at least a semi-regular thing

how wd you guys feel abt a visit from Dr Morbius on Oct 9?

*barf*

gosh

uh

hey Treesh

hey treesh should we Shake Shack tomorrow? Do you think they have the good fries back?

GUYS

This cheese sauce is fucking UNREAL

Like it has the most insaaaane umami richness to it!! It tastes like it has some sort of mushroom/white wine/glutamate component or something? IDK it's like if you deglazed the richest fond and then put it in cheese sauce!!! IT WAS BATSHIT.

V CRUCIAL UPDATE

http://sploid.gizmodo.com/shake-shacks-new-fried-shallots-burger-looks-like-crunc-1676590714/

MY MAN TREESH, are you up for this new and exciting burger challenge????

Just went in on the Meister (DC SS). It was more crunchy onion bits than rings but still really good. Actually, bits are probably even crunchier.

Atlanta got a Shake Shack a few months ago, but I hadn't even realized it until a coworker posted his review on fb today: "Not a shack. The burger and shake are middling attempts. This place thinks a lot of itself, but its basically a seasoned-down, tarted-up Five Guys with milk shakes. 4/10, will not return."

Who's on board with the IPO?

That new burger was always available to people who understand that you can basically do whatever you want with the menu, like ask for the shallots that were offered with the hot dog on the burger.

Most people who don't think much of the place order the shackburger with nothing on it which is not in fact all that great. You need to either order up to the mushroom or bacon versions or down to the cheeseless burger with everything else, and in either case order rare so that you're actually tasting the meat. Most people who think it compares unfavorably to Five Guys lack taste buds.

I think the Five Guys comparison was a knock. Atlanta has no shortage of good burger places at which to dine.

lol not a shack

"I think the Five Guys comparison was a knock. Atlanta has no shortage of good burger places at which to dine."

As does any major city. That is not the category to which Shake Shack does, or pretends to, belong. However, it is at the top of the fast-food burger pyramid and the quality of its ingredients or combinations, when appropriately quality-controlled, can meet or exceed a non-fast food equivalent.

That said, I reserve it for special occasions these days. It may be good, but it isn't health food.

same

I still haven't tried it, having only found out today that it's here. I probably will, though, because HAMBURGERS.

its really good

i might go grab a shackburger tomorrow.

We went to shake shack by barclay's center after a nets game because we had really wanted ice cream and not realized the concessions (blue marble etc.) close well before the game is over. They had some apple pie flavored custard, which I didn't think was very good. Still have never had their burgers/fries though.

update: i grabbed a shackburger.

and...

The shackburger grabbed him

love the shack, never had a bad shackburger. was able to resist the shackmeister--the pull of novelty was defeated by the fact that i actually don't really want fried shallots on my burger.

i really, really want fried shallots on my burger

Things I want 2 try at Shake Shack:

1. Burger w/ crunchy shallots
2. Burger w/ crunchy shallots + cherry pepper slaw
3. Burger w/ cheese sauce instead of sliced cheese

Stevie do you have a favorite Custard Stand?

No I don't think I even know of any!

I like Olympia Dairy Bar (haven't been there since they were bought by Lapp's):

cherry peppers is the A#1 thing that separates shake shack from the rest of the pack

At the center city one. Not the same as the one in university city

Shackmeister Burger remains divine though, it's true

Treesh we have to go to UC v soon

i'm going to be very upset if we don't win that quizzo eventually
