| - I went to Shake Shack again! My last time, it was after Cirque du Soleil's O show and this time, it was after their KA show (this is really a coincidence!) The lineup was once again really long! We wanted to eat this before our show but we would be at least 30 minutes late for our show. We started lining up but had to leave the lineup because it wasn't moving fast enough for us to order, wait for our food, eat and run to MGM.
I wanted to order their roadside burger for my family since they haven't been to Shake Shack but I ordered the wrong burger... The Roadside burger was not on their black billboard menu and at that time, I couldn't remember what my boyfriend got, so I tried my best and ordered what seems to be the best burger out of the menu: the smokeshack (Cheeseburger topped with all-natural applewood smoked bacon, chopped cherry pepper, ShackSauce). I also ordered the strawberry milkshake and their cheese fries.
Overall, I find the smokeshack a bit too salty for me, it is not as greasy as the roadside burger but I didn't like it much. The bacon was too salty but the patty and sauce was really good. I was surprised to find it a little bit/quite spicy (I must have been blind for not seeing that it contains chopped cherry pepper!) Nevertheless, it was a decent burger but my favorite one is still their roadside burger! Next time, I would try their 'Shroom Burger (Crisp-fried portobello mushroom filled with melted muenster and cheddar cheeses, topped with lettuce, tomato, ShackSauce), their Shack Stack (Cheeseburger and a 'Shroom Burger topped with lettuce, tomato, ShackSauce) or their simply their Shack Burger (Cheeseburger topped with lettuce, tomato, ShackSauce), which seems to be the most popular option.
I find their strawberry milkshake to be really average, it tasted like strawberry as expected. I would order their black and white milkshake again but not the strawberry one.
Their cheese fries (Topped with our special blend of cheddar and American cheese sauce) was REALLY good! I really like melted cheese (I'm picky with my cheese since I don't like unmelted ones! Yes, the texture makes a big difference). I don't know why but melted cheese taste much better than unmelted cheese, don't you agree? The cheese was really flavorful but not too heavy, and went well with the fries! I would order this again but next time, I would eat this before it colds down (I don't like it when my cheese becomes "stiff", I like it when it stretches)!
