The eponymous burger requires three napkins, not five, but it's great anyway, laked with so much aioli it looks like melted cheese.

A disclaimer: As the only member of the Voice food department who doesn't eat meat, I don't have much to say about normal burgers.

The patty's ingredients include barley, black beans, brown rice, sesame seeds, jalapeños, carrots, and beets, the latter of which lend it a convincing shade of meaty pink. Plopped onto a stout multigrain bun with lettuce, tomatoes, bread-and-butter pickles, and Russian-dressing-like 5N... More »
