Shakin' the Shack

We went on a field trip the other night.  Our destination surprised even us.  For a couple of folks who cook inside their home 99.8% of the time, we got all kinds of crazy and headed out to dinner.  That's right ... we loaded up our car, sat in crazy night time traffic, circled for parking for an hour and ended up at our final destination -- the mall.  Yup, not only did we got out to dinner we went out to dinner in a mall.  Now, we were not just rolling into some food court, sidling up to the KFC counter and asking for meat in a bucket.  Rather we went to a highly prestigious place which only has two locations in the world:  New York City and The Avenues Mall in Kuwait (an obvious choice). 

The Shake Shack is a burger place that uses local and fresh ingredients to make burgers, fries, and shakes.  They are pretty famous in Kuwait and after all of our students recommendations, we decided to check them out ourselves.  We were excited to try the food and see what all the buzz was about.  Only after we finished eating our delicious order while sitting in the main corridor of the mall did we realize that we might indeed be the only people who have ever deliberately set out for Shake Shack to order veggie hot dogs and share one small milkshake.  Looks like another field trip is in order.

Drooling with anticipation over the tray of delight that is to come.  This place is so fancy they have someone who pumps your ketchup and mustard for you.

A burger joint?  Nah.  We'll have the veggie dog.

Adam is a little nervous to be eating in a mall.  But the fries made it worth it.
