California’s First Drive-Thru Shake Shack Opens This Week in Torrance | Eater LA
"I note that Danny Meyer’s burger chain behemoth, which has opened nearly two dozen Los Angeles locations over the past eight years, will open its first Southern California drive-thru on Thursday, August 15 in a purpose-built structure at 1875 West 190th Street in Torrance. It’s fitting for SoCal’s drive-thru culture: the Torrance site will be Shake Shack’s 36th drive-thru operation in the United States and the chain’s 49th outlet overall in California. Begun as a hot dog cart in Madison Square Park in 2001, the menu remains focused on burgers, milkshakes, and crinkle-cut fries. To fete the opening, Shake Shack will host a food drive on August 14–15 for New Challenge Ministries (dining on August 14 is reserved for friends and family), and on opening day it will donate $1 from every sandwich sold to that food bank." - Mona Holmes
