December Custard Calendar is Very XMas-ey: A new month means a new line up of custard flavors at the Shake Shack (on 8th Ave. and 44th). There's Candy Cane Crunch (Fri), Gingerbread (Sat), Spiced Apple Cider (Sun), Eggnog (Mon), Figgy Pudding (Tues), Panettone (Weds), and today’s flavor: Chocolate Orange Chestnut Swirl. The Gingerbread custard is quite good, too bad it's only on Saturdays. Bah humbug.

Take That Shake Shack: When Shake Shack opened their new Midtown location on 8th Ave. we thought it was going to be bad news for Schnipper's Quality Kitchen. Not at all says the owners, and to prove how not effected they are by the Shack the Schnipper's Bros have decided to open a 2nd location across the park from the original Shake Shack. Good luck with that!

Your First Look at Shacktoberfest: Just a friendly reminder in case you missed it on Friday... All this week Shake Shack is holding their annual Shacktoberfest, with beers, sausages, and Bavarian inspired concretes (see the complete menu here.) Serious Eats: New York was there on opening day, and filed this drool inducing report.

In case you haven’t checked your calendar, today’s October 1st and there’s a new line up of custard flavors at the Shake Shack (on 8th Ave. and 44th) including Pumpkin Pie, S’mores, Orange Fennel, Coconut Caramel, Concord Grape, Apple Cinnamon Raisin, and Shackenstein (it’s almost worth it to come into midtown on a Sunday just to find out what Shackenstein, is…almost). And I just noticed via Shack Shack’s official Facebook Page that Shacktoberfest is back at every Shack location from 10/1 until 10/10.

I’ve always enjoyed Katz’s deli, and I’ve recently become a Shake Shack convert. So I was instantly sold when I heard about Shake Shack’s “Deli Dog” offering ($5.25), the progeny of a holy union of two iconic New York culinary staples – Katz’s world famous pastrami and a classic all beef New York hotdog. In keeping with the classic NY deli theme, Shake Shack is also offering an egg cream ($3.50). Both specials are available for this week only.
I’ll admit, I had my doubts – is this creation simply a Danny Meyer gimmick? Or would this juxtaposition of smoked brisket and hot dog bring honor to both Midtown and classic New York flavors? And why is this egg cream so darn expensive? I case the encased meat offerings after the jump.

Shake Shack Selling Pastrami Dogs & Egg Creams: This week only (through 9/26) the Shake Shack in Midtown (on 8th Ave. and 44th) will be selling a "Deli Dog"... that's a "griddled Vienna all-beef hot dog topped with Katz's Deli pastrami, Schaller & Weber sauerkraut and our special Shack sauce ($5.25). And you'll be able to wash that bad boy down with an egg cream ($3.50). Nice. [via Eater]

Have you been wanting to try the concretes or shakes at the new Midtown Shake Shack (on 44th & 8th), but didn’t want to wait in the crazy lunchtime line? Good news for you! It looks like they’ve added a “C line” to the Times Square location. Eric, the luncher who was kind enough to send us this photo of the new sign, was concerned that this might be a weekend only kind of thing… but we’re going to assume hope that it’s permanent.

Yesterday I found myself giving Midtown some weekend love in the form of showing a tourist family member around. (I know, it sucks. But it had to be done.) I decided my sweet reward would be a little concrete action from the newly open Shake Shack (on 8th Ave. and 44th) I’ve been hearing about (lines be damned!) And guess what? No line. None, whatsoever. Maybe all the tourists were down in Madison Square Park? Or maybe they’re just scared of 8th Avenue? Regardless, if you’re dying for one of the new concretes, (or feel the need to pick up a little onesie for a cute baby) clearly the weekend is the time to do it… although I’m guessing it’s just a matter of time before the tourists get hip to the new location and descend en masse. Can’t bring yourself to venture into Midtown during the weekend? At least prepare yourself for the lunchtime wait with our handy guide to the Shack Shack line.
