Sunday, August 23rd, 2009Dream of Shake Shack burger becomes a reality
Saturday, August 22nd, 2009After living in New York City for 3+ years and several failed attempts to wait on line for the famous Shake Shack burger at the original Madison Square Park location, I once again braved the line, but this time at the brand new Shake Shack satellite location at the new Citi Field last Tuesday. This time I was successful.
While it is a tasty burger, I would rate it below The Spotted Pig’s burger and below Woodside’s own Donovan’s, which appeared in Time Out New York’s Best Cheap Eats edition as far back as 1999.
