Shake Shack just unveiled a tasty new dish that offers a fresh take on traditional surf and turf. Once a luxury ingredient, lobster has quickly become a popular addition to many fast food menus. From sub sandwiches to donuts, there is no shortage of lobster-infused dishes in the food industry.
Shake Shake recently hopped on the seafood bandwagon with its brand new lobster-topped burger. The dish is called the 'Surf N’ Shack' and consists of a hamburger topped with tomato, lettuce, ShakeSauce and fresh Maine lobster. The lobster comes from Homarus, meaning you can be sure that you're receiving quality lobster meat. The addition of fresh seafood to the classic burger provides a delicious twist on traditional surf and turf.
The 'Surf N' Shack' sandwich is available now through September 20th at participating Shake Shack locations in Boston and Connecticut.
