"The plant-based burger at this vegan restaurant in Cow Hollow would make plenty of the city’s meat versions go cower in a corner. It’s reason alone to get here for an extra-long lunch after picking up luxury dog treats in the area. The patty is made with a well-spiced mix of mushrooms and spinach and gets a nice crust around the edges that keeps the whole thing in one piece. Grilled onions, sweet tomato chutney, and a swath of chipotle aioli tie it all together." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
