The baseball fan experience - and hamburgers

New York City has two new baseball stadiums, but only one hired Gel speaker Danny Meyer for concessions. In this review, New York Times food critic Frank Bruni compares hamburgers at the stadia:

The Yankees turned to the Johnny Rockets chain -- and have been rewarded with foil-wrapped, overheated, clumpy cheeseburgers ($9) that didn't seem remotely fresh.

The Mets turned to Mr. Meyer's Shake Shack, with a payoff of hot-off-the-griddle cheeseburgers ($5.75) as juicy, beefy and irresistible as at Shack locations in Manhattan.

Watch Danny Meyer's Gel video, where he divulges the key to his success: hospitality.

$5.75 for a burger at a stadium is great. I can't get a burger that cheap at our AAA team's stadium.
