Shake Shack’s 100th Location, Feltman’s Finds a Home at Theater 80, and More Intel

— Shake Shack is giving away Shackburgers to the first 100 guests at every location (outside of ballparks) today, starting at 10:30 a.m. The giveaway is tied to the opening of the chain’s 100th store, which is located in Boston. Danny Meyer tells Eater Boston: "It generally takes us a good year and a half to conceive and gestate a neighborhood and design it and build it and open it, but that’s a good pace for us because we don’t think there should be a Shake Shack in every single neighborhood." Meyer doesn’t have any plans to open a more formal restaurant in the Boston area. The hospitality legend explains: "We’ve been pretty conservative about keeping our fine dining restaurants in New York City."
