Shake shack - a world famous burger joint that has taken social media by storm has finally landed in Hong Kong. No more fantasising from checking out Instagram photos Hongkongers but it also means that people are going crazy about this place. I went to this restaurant much later than usual (a whole year after opening) hoping to minimise my queuing time and this proved me wrong. The restaurant was super packed and I waited in the queue for 15 mins to place order, plus another 10 minutes before I
Knowing that it might be the last time to visit, we ordered everything we wanted in one go.
Shack burger (double) - cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, shacksauce
Always loved brioche buns for the fluffiness and buttery sweet flavour that go well with any ingredients. The beef patty was thick, juicy and slightly seasoned, with melted cheese clinging to it. The vegetables were fresh and crisp too but the shacksauce didn’t really stand out. Not bad but not something unforgettable.
Shroom burger - Deep fried portobello mushroom filled with muenster and cheddar cheese, topped with lettuce, tomato, shacksauce
This one was a must-try! The crispy and slightly chewy portobello mushroom with oozing cheese was the most satisfying ever! The vegetables balanced out the fattiness and saltiness of the cheese and all of these made a burger in heaven!
Hamburger with lettuce, tomato and onions
Their hamburger was rather ordinary without the shacksauce and cheese. Not that it’s not yummy but probably more for people who like it simple.
Cheese fries
I prefer crunchy and thick cut fries so Shake Shack’s version easily ticked my boxes, only if the fries were slightly more seasoned. The cheese sauce was alright but didn’t lift the flavours too much. Finish this quickly or else the fries will get soggy.
Coffee shake
Woah this is the shake I am talking about! Thick, creamy and full of coffee aroma from the first sip! Get this if you are a coffee lover.
Milk tea shake
A flavour only offered in Hong Kong stores so I had high expectations. Sadly, the milk tea flavour resembles that of English milk tea instead of the Hong Kong version. It was a little too sweet for my liking too.
Iced tea
I thought this would be some kind of sweetened lemon or peach iced tea but it was literally an iced tea. It was still refreshing but could be bland when eaten with burgers and fries. If I’m visiting for a second time, I’m going for their fifty/fifty (a mix of lemonade and iced tea).
