Great Sacramento Vegan Burger Battle -- LowBrau

While I could happily eat an Impossible Burger every day during this month's Great Sacramento Vegan Burger Battle, I know many of you prefer house-made veggie burgers. So today, I decided to meet up with my friend Kathy, who writes the Sacramento Revealed blog, to try the house-made burger LowBrau is offering this month.

The LowBrau vegan burger consists of a hearty black bean patty, served with lettuce, red onion, bread and butter pickles, almond crema, and chimichurri on a pretzel bun. It was a little on the spicy side, which was fine with me, but if you have a low tolerance for spicy food, you may want to mention that to your server.

LowBrau has several other vegan items on their menu, including a tasty German potato salad that Kathy and I shared. This was a very satisfying meal.

LowBrau is located at 1050 20th Street, and their phone number is 916-706-2636.
