Shake Shack Burger (First Food Review) Three words: a must have


I decided to create my first-ever  ”food review” about my favorite burger of all time which was SHAKE SHACK BURGER. The first time that I’ve heard of this phenomenal burger was when I was watching food network. Fortunately, it was located at Madison Square Park, New York, NY about 40 minutes away from Long Island, NY, where I lived. So I told my mom that we should go to the city and try this so-called awesome burger. At first, I was a little bit cynical and skeptical about it because I’ve tried numerous burgers in New York and I’ve never been “wowed” or amazed.
So one day, my mom and I hopped onto a train to New York City and we walked about 20 minutes to reach Madison Square Park, at that time I was famished, I really wanted to take a bite out of that burger. We arrived at Shake Shack at about 12:30 pm and we were astounded by the seemingly endless line that greeted us. That’s when I realized that maybe this burger was really delicious because of these people. We waited for an hour and a half in line and it was finally our turn, my mom and I both ordered their doubleShackBurger Meal (Cheeseburger topped with lettuce, tomato, and ShackSauce). I also ordered their cheese fries (topped with their Shack Cheddar and American Cheese Sauce) and Concrete Junglewhich is vanilla custard with fudge sauce, bananas and peanut butter sauce.
We even had trouble finding seats because there were fewer seats compared to their customers that time. Alas, we were able to find our spot and I finally took a bite out of that ShackBurger and I can only say these words: it was extremely delectable and flavorful. It was the best burger that I’ve ever tasted in my life without sarcasm. The burger was succulent and once I took a bite on it, I can’t stop eating. It was YUMMYLICIOUS.  I finally found a burger that I will be willing to wait in line for. I was extremely satisfied but at the same time regretful because I wish I could’ve ordered for one or two more burgers. If it wasn’t for the long line, I would definitely be grabbing one to take home with me. Then, for dessert I consumed their concrete jungle, I might sound repetitive but I’ll say it again…it was yummylicious. How can you go wrong with the Concrete Jungle Shake? it contains peanut butter and bananas, my two favorite things. Up to this day, I have never tried a shake as delicious as this. It is pure happiness trapped into a single cup that you can simply devour with a spoon. The best part of the Shake was the bottom part, when you get a taste of every flavor and ingredient incorporated into this shake. YUM, YUM!!!! Even the fries were delicious and crispy. It was simple yet irresistible.
The prices were not that expensive compared to other restaurants or fast-food chains that I’ve been in. It is cheap, especially if you put into consideration the quality of the burger. I know waiting in line for hours might sound heart wrenching, but I promise you that once you get your burger, you’re going to be in heaven. Shake Shack also offers various burgers, hotdogs, and shakes that you’ll definitely love. SHAKE SHACK BURGER is A MUST HAVE. So if you are around New York, or will be traveling soon, please include Shake Shack as a part of your journey.
