Little Pie Company | NYC

Breakfast pies!

The only time Claudia and I found time for our pie was first thing in the morning... You see, we had quite the check-list of foodie spots to try for the 2 nights I was staying with her. They say to never skip breakfast, so pie was the decision for our perfect first meal for our second day. Fruits in the morning are good for you, right? I thought so ;)

Burger Battle

Speaking of the East Coast/West Coast [burger] battle in my last post, check out this link :: The First Bi-Coastal Side-by-Side Taste Test with Shake Shack, Five Guys & In-N-Out

Shake Shack

Finally!

After much wait, I can now say I've eaten at the famous NY "roadside burger stand", Shake Shack. Claudia and I went to the original one in Madison Square Park. We were immediately greeted by a long line of locals, tourists and pretty much everyone in between at what seemed to be a neighborhood fixture. I thought New Yorkers were always on the go... Quick, fast, quick! Not here. Everyone was happily enjoying the sunshine and greenery in that afternoon line.

I remember asking people what was "so good" about Shake Shack, and they would always tell me it was the equivalent of In N Out. So now I get it, it's pretty much the same novelty. Honestly, I think the battle of In N Out vs Shake Shack is probably comparable to an East Coast/West Coast battle. They're both delicious (or in the other case, great cities)... But as usual, you do have one favorite ;)

Shack Burger (ok i was so full from eating 2 Levain cookies right before this... i could only stomach a burger and no fries... sad i know)

Chocolate Peanut Butter Custard (obviously i had room for this teeny dessert!)
