Talk about coming a long way! What started
out as a hot dog cart in Madison Square Park in New York City back in 2001 has
evolved into a “burger legend” if you will; with over 14 locations nationwide
and two in the Middle East. Best news for us is
Shake Shack just opened a brand new location this past Sunday July
15
th in
Coral Gables,
at
1450 South Dixie Highway
(US1). With one location already open on
Lincoln Road, those on the west end of
town can now enjoy some shack at whim.
I had the pleasure of visiting Shake Shack
last Wednesday, a few days before the Grand Opening, and loved their new place.
Conveniently located near the
University
of
Miami, this is their largest Shake
Shack yet, and it features cool tabletops, built from reclaimed bowling alley
lanes in
Brooklyn. Where else can you know
what your table was before you were eating on it?

The food is awesome as usual. I indulged
in their SmokeShack Burger, a tasty patty
topped with applewood smoked bacon, chopped cherry peppers and Shake Sauce.
Although I pride myself in being a lady, I must confess I was licking my
fingers when I was done. I also had a side of their delicious Crinkle cut Cheese Fries, made from Yukon potatoes and topped
with their signature Shack cheddar and American cheese sauce. Can I hear a
round of Oh Yeah?

Chocolate Shake Sample |
As a very nice server walked up to me and
offered me a bite of their Shack-cago Dog, (no that is not a typo), I politely said “Sure”. After all I was
getting my vegetable servings for the day, being that it is topped with relish,
onion, pickle, tomato and pepper. Finally, I saw them: the Shakes; little mini versions of their famous sweet delights, just waiting for me to pick them up. They were thick, they were rich,
and they were good. I won’t even tell you how many of them I had because there
are just some things a girl doesn’t share.
