Profile

From the owners of the quasi-vegetarian Josie's, a snappy fast-food stand that both carnivores and quasi-vegetarians will like. Free-range beef, chicken, and turkey burgers are cooked in a fat-draining contraption that looks like a giant George Foreman grill, while soy and veggie versions are pan-seared. Likewise, crispy, crinkly French fries are almost virtuous, spritzed with olive oil and baked. Even the take on Mickey D's "special sauce" is made from Muir Glen tomatoes and Vegannaise.

Recommended Dishes

Squash soup (seasonal), $3.25; beef burger, $5.99
