If you’ve been craving something extra this season, Shake Shack just delivered. Their new White Truffle Menu has officially landed in the Middle East, and it’s basically the glow-up of the year. Last year, everyone lost their minds over the Black Truffle Burger… and Shake Shack clearly took notes because this time they’ve brought out the white truffle. And trust me, this one is the superstar of the truffle world. I have all the delicious details you want to know.

White Truffle In The Spotlight
White truffles are rare, super aromatic, and honestly a bit dramatic in the best way. They only grow around certain tree roots, can’t be farmed, and are considered the royalty of the mushroom universe. Usually, you’d only find them in restaurants where the plates are tiny and the bills are scary. But now they’re at your neighbourhood Shack. We are loving accessibility.
A Burger That’s A Little Bit Extra… In All The Right Ways
So, what makes the White Truffle Burger the main attraction of the menu this season? Allow me to tell you. It takes Shake Shack’s classic 100% Angus beef patty and levels it up with a silky truffle sauce made with truffle oil, crispy shallots for a bit of crunch. And, of course, we can forget about the melted Emmental cheese for that dreamy pull. All tucked into their toasted potato bun.
Simon King, MD UK and VP MENA for Shake Shack, summed it up perfectly when he said this is their “most exciting offering of the year”. Which makes sense, because one bite in and you’re already planning your second visit.
Other White Truffle Creations You’ll Want to Meet
Because Shake Shack doesn’t do things halfway, they brought friends along for the ride too:
White Truffle Chicken
Tender chicken, white truffle sauce, arugula, pickled shallots… It’s like the burger’s sophisticated sibling.
White Truffle Shroom
Calling all vegetarians (and non-vegetarians, honestly). This one’s a crisp-fried portobello stuffed with melted cheese and finished with truffle sauce. It’s rich. It’s crunchy. It’s everything. It’s my absolutely favourite.
Parmesan Fries
Crinkle-cut, cheesy, and served with white truffle sauce. You will not want to share, and that’s okay. Neither do I when it comes to fries.
Drinks & Dessert That Fit the Vibe
To keep the theme going, Shake Shack also has two limited-time sparkly mocktails. Say hello to the Sparkling Blackberry Bramble and Sparkling Cherry Limeade! AKA a refreshing break your tastebuds need after all that truffle magic.
And since winter is officially upon us, there’s a Gingerbread Shake that tastes like festive season in a cup. Creamy, cosy, and honestly very hard to put down. And don’t make the same mistake as I did, just buy 2 when you’re already in the drive through so you don’t need to go back again.
A Limited-Time Treat You’ll Keep Thinking About
This whole White Truffle Menu is only out for a short while across Shake Shack Middle East, and this is one seasonal drop that really is worth the hype. Saying you need to try it at least once is pretty much an understatement at this point.
If you’re into bold flavours, seasonal ingredients, and feeling a little fancy without trying too hard… this is the burger drop for you. Head to Shake Shacks website for more information.
