The Shake Shack
Although our firm is called Union Square Ventures, we are located between Union Square Park and Madison Square Park, a bit closer to Madison Square.
In the spring, summer and fall, the location is a major asset since we are a short walk from the Shake Shack. And the good news is that the Shake Shack opens for the season tomorrow! CORRECTION - The Shake Shack doesn't open until Monday.
So on our way from LA to San Diego yesterday, we had to visit the orignal Shake Shack.
It's on the Pacific Coast Highway, between Newport Beach and Laguna Beach.
The shakes were great.
The hotdogs don't come close to what they offer in Madison Square Park.
They don't sell burgers.
And the sandwiches were pretty forgetable.
But the view - well that was incredible.

Try Ruby's for burgers, in Laguna Niguel. Their shakes are pretty good too.

Per Shake Shack's site - they actually open for the season on Monday, April 4th. A walk over there tomorrow might result in an unfulfilled craving.

When you get back, we must Shake Shack!

I lived in Orange County for many years, and often went to the Shake Shack with my high school buddies after a weekend day at the beach.
I haven't seen it in a few years, but I always loved that it was on one of the rare stretches of undeveloped coastline in that area.
Thanks for reminding me. I'll be sure to visit next time I'm out there, and I'll check out your version next time I'm in New York.
And JayR's right about Ruby's, but it doesn't match the Shake Shack view.

The last two lines there rhyming made me chuckle. I have yet to be to Cali. It's pretty near the top of the list of Places to go now that I have a job that gives me vacation and decent pay.
