Better Buy: Shake Shack Inc vs. Habit Restaurants Inc

It's never been easier to get a great burger at your corner chain. While Shake Shack (NYSE: SHAK) and Habit Restaurants (NASDAQ: HABT) -- parent of Habit Burger Grill -- are still both very young companies with small footprints, they both aspire to hold solid niches across the country in the coming decade. They want to be the ones serving you your burgers.

But the restaurant business can be brutal: there's nothing one outfit can offer that another can't immediately copy. That's what makes these two chains so unique -- they experienced enough success to become publicly traded entities and start rapid expansion.
