For a short time this season, Shake Shack restaurants across the United States will be turning one special table into an upscale dining experience called The Truffle Table. The fine dining-inspired offering offer an affordable luxury experience, complete with a white tablecloth and a pre-fixe menu that includes items like the White Truffle Burger, the White Truffle' Shroom Burger and Parmesan Fries with White Truffle Sauce.
Also on offer are bottomless red or white Shack canned wine and beverages, a shake and a chocolate truffle from Thierry Atlan. Fast food diners who are craving a luxury experience on a budget can reserve their table for $20, plus tax, per person. Those who get an exclusive reservation at the participating locations will also get a take-home bottle of Regalis truffle oil.
