these are the grills they still use
Call me crazy, but isn't that ketchup in your photo?

Klassy,
The White Castle burgers are made of BUN with some meat grease sprayed on in a thin layer.
I gave them a try long ago and that try was just so delectable that I thought I would go 40 years with never another.
Perhaps they are good for wiping up kitchen spills or poisoning pigeons? Maybe as a bunion pad for tight shoes?
How that chain remains in business I will never know...but then I have never solved the mystery of Radio Shack's survival either.

Taking the bus up First Avenue I spotted a WC in the lower 100's. Unfortunately I left my crucifix at home so I could not kill the curse. From what I could see they had zero customers.

Anyone else thinks their burgers are overly salty?

Their burgers are alright. I definitely prefer 5 Guys/other Diner's burgers around my way instead. However, their shakes are alright. Definitely not worth the wait in front of those massive lines that gather in most spots across the city.

A bunch of us went to the Shake Shack in DC...We all liked it, but we agreed it didn't live up to the hype and it's not good enough to stand in a long line.

I thought it was surprisingly poor, coming from Danny Meyer.

I've gone. Both SS and 5G are superior to me.
