Shake Shack, Danny Meyer's popular East Coast burger chain, is launching a limited edition lobster burger. The crustacean, which has long been reserved for fine dining restaurants, has become one of the new darlings of street food, similar to other high end ingredients.

Shake Shack's lobster burger, dubbed the "Surf'N'Shack", is a surf-and-turf item consisting of an Angus patty topped with Maine lobster served with lettuce and tomato in a potato roll. The limited edition sandwich is available only until Sept 20 and only in Boston and Connecticut. Shake Shack is sourcing the lobster from a local and sustainable purveyor, Homarus, and since lobster doesn't come cheap, this is one of the priciest burgers on Shake Shack's menu at US$8.99 (RM38) a pop.
