Steak N Shake

Without sounding like a Yelp snob, I never yelp about fast food.

HOWEVER....seeing a this is the only S&S in Houston, I have to represent.

I went to Indiana University, whose business school is named after the person who founded S&S. I spent many a late night sobering up with friends, fries and fake cheese sauce (a huge guilty pleasure) in my college days.

Fast forward four years later...I had heard a rumor that they were to open a S&S here. Seeing as I am an inner looper, I couldn't understand the location they'd speak of.

One fateful day, I drove out to a friend of a friends home off of 1960 - and before my very eyes - A STEAK 'n SHAKE.

Like I said, I spent 4 years getting fries w/ cheese alone from this menu. Their fries are thinner than any other fries you've seen, but they still manage to stay crispy. And when you dip them in cheese sauce - well, things get a lil crazy.

This past Saturday late night, I had the luck of trying the Wisconsin Buttery burger - OMG.

ONE OF THE BEST FAST FOOD, NAY, ANY BURGERS I'VE EVER HAD.

Mushrooms, grilled onions, and cheese on a thin steak patty - so simple, so delightful.

I'm so thankful that it's far away from me or my doctor could be easily concerned for my health.

My friend and I made a pact that no matter the situation, from now on, if we are ever on that side of town, we must stop and split this burger.

Steak N Shake, one day Houston will understand all that you offer 24/7.
