Shake Shack - Grand Central [NYC]

We had a late dinner reservation and was tired of shopping (yes that happens when you bought too much already), so we decided to head to the closest Shake Shack (@shakeshack) which happens to be at the lower level of the Grand Central Terminal which I wanted to stop by.

It was not an individual store but more like a food court, a dinning concourse.

There was quite a line up, I guess it's because it's dinner time but the service was surprisingly good with a staff directing people to the line and replying any question you may have.

Shackmeister Ale

~ Shake Shack Beer from Brooklyn Brewery

Wanted to visit the brewery but didn't have time, so next time but was glad to at least be able to try one of their beer. This pale ale have just the right malt and bright hop flavors to compliment the beef.

ShackBurger $4.75

~ Cheeseburger topped with lettuce, tomato and ShackSauce

SmokeShack $6.25

~ Cheeseburger topped with all-natural applewood smoked bacon, chopped cherry pepper and ShackSauce

I am really not sure what all the buzz is about, it's a good burger on a very soft bun but really nothing to go crazy about. And yes I will still choose this over McD anytime...
