Danny Meyer's burger mecca has brought a sweet addition to weekend brunch fare. Saturdays in April are Pancakes and Bacon custard days at Shake Shack. So of course, when we passed by the UWS location, we by-passed the long line of strollers, families, and tourists and headed straight to the empty C-line (the express line where you can order anything but hot foods).
For $3.50, we got a small cup of porktastic goodness. The pancake custard itself was creamy and tasted very similar to vanilla. The star of the dessert was the fairly meaty bits of bacon scattered throughout the frozen custard. They were salty - and the longer we let the custard sit, the more the bacon flavor took over. Overall, we love the combination of salty and sweet ingredients. Bacon really does make almost anything taste better!
Next Saturday is the last day for the Pancakes and Bacon Custard (though we hope it makes a return!)
Shake Shack has various locations throughout the city (and one coming soon to Miami). We went to the one located at 366 Columbus Ave (at W 77th St.) in NYC.
