Shake Shack
-
It was pretty good, with some caveats. First, you could not order a shake at their kiosks for some reason. Second, you order at a kiosk and wait and they still want a fucking tip. No.
Decent burger, very good fries. It's about 7 miles from me too, George. I'd stop if I were in the area, but otherwise there are lots of burgers just as good near me.

Five Guys, Freddy's, Sonic, Smashburger, Habits, In-N-Out (although the one I ate at in Texas was substandard for the chain), Whattaburger, Culvers.

No great shakes, is the Shake Shack.

Close to me are Five Guys and Culvers.
The In-N-Out I had in San Francisco was nothing special.

I have wondered if In-N-Out could maintain the level of quality they used to have while expanding. I don't think so.

It's the way of things. Look at Five Guys. Phenomenal still in the D.C. locations, decidedly "meh" everywhere else. Soon even the originals will suck.
Please love yourself.

I used to eat at the original, which is indeed a shack that sells shakes (and burgers) in Madison Park.
Credit Suisse’s NY headquarters is adjacent to the park at One Madison Avenue. As early as ~2005 or so, there was a live webcam that would show you the line there. We would periodically monitor it and head down at random times when the line was short to grab a burger. This was before they opened their second store.
Now I go probably twice a month with my son to one of the stores in Westchester. It’s good but every item on the menu is a sodium bomb.

Ours closed. I miss it.
