Burger Sensation Shake Shack Rumored for River North

Shake Shack, restaurateur Danny Meyer's New York-based burger chain, has locations in Connecticut, Florida, Dubai, and Kuwait City and just announced plans for Boston and London locations. Is Chicago next? Both an Eater tipster and Grub Street hear the chain is eying a location on East Ohio Street just off Michigan Avenue, possibly replacing the Harley Davidson dealership there. Reps are, as usual, tight lipped, but it would be a win for Chicago and it would be Midwesterner Meyer's first expansion closer to his homeland. Also: it would be right across the street from another monster import Eataly.
