Shake Shack launches the Buffalo Chicken burger

The Buffalo Chicken (P345) launched on August 16. It's made with a sous vide breast fillet marinated in creamy buttermilk that's then dredged and only fried to a golden crisp upon ordering. That means it's hot and fresh when you pick it up from the counter. What amps up this chicken burger is, of course, the buffalo sauce. Shake Shack made sure their's is more on the vinegary side of things, still keeping things rich and deep with butter and hints of garlic. And don't worry, it's at the perfect spot on the heat spectrum; enough for you to get that buzz without overpowering all the flavors.

We got to try the burger out and yes, it's definitely for those who know their Buffalo sauce. The tangy and spicy sauce coats the fillet, while chunky slices of pickle adds to the bright flavors. All that is balanced out with a hefty potato bun and crisp lettuce. The ranch dressing was no mere afterthought either; thick and creamy thanks to parmesan cheese, it levels up with a custom spice blend that cuts the heat of the burger perfectly. Just imagine all those flavors and textures combining in one deeply satisfying and zingy bite.

Pair the burger with two new sides: choose from the Buffalo Chicken Bites (P245/ six pieces; P355/10 pieces). The first will sate that inner kid that always wants nuggies. Think white chicken meat hand-breaded and fried till crisp, only made more #adult with a dusting of Buffalo spice mix. Our fave has to be the Spiced Cheese Fries (P235). It's the addicting cheese fries of Shake Shack with a sprinkling of the Buffalo spice mix. Best part is that you get a serving of the ranch on the side, to accompany each spicy and cheesy potato-y bite, or for you to just spoon into your mouth. We know we did. 

Shake Shack is a popular chain known for serving up American classics like beef burgers, hand-spun milkshakes, and more. They first opened up in the Philippines in 2019.
