Roam is donating a portion of proceeds from each Vegan Bacon Cheeseburger to the Surfrider Foundation, an organization dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of the world’s ocean, waves and beaches for all people. With many people gravitating towards a plant-based diet, we wanted to provide one more fun, delicious and nutrient-rich menu option,” contends Lynn Gorfinkle, Roam’s Owner/Co-Founder. “This is our take on the nostalgic bacon cheeseburger, only with a twist that it is vegan. Based on coconut oil and fortified with Vitamin B12, the vegan cheese alternative provides texture and tang to complement the veggie patty and crispy vegan bacon. Violife offers a 100% vegan, non-dairy award-winning alternative that looks, tastes and melts like cheese. Umaro, which initially became famous from the bidding war it started on Shark Tank, makes a vegan bacon with protein from sushi-grade nori, and bacon fat with sea moss extracts that provide a crispy texture. In both regards, Umaro and Violife hit the mark. With plant-based foods in high demand, Roam was eager to introduce more vegan alternatives with clean labels that satisfy customers who pay attention to ingredients. The partnership between Roam, Umaro Foods Bacon and Violife is a "match made in heaven," said Umaro Foods CEO Beth Zotter. The Vegan Bacon Cheeseburger collaboration with Umaro Foods and Violife is the perfect opportunity to bring something new and exciting to the menu in a meaningful way,” says Joshua Spiegelman, Roam’s Owner/Co-Founder. “Our customers have been requesting a plant-based protein in addition to our already popular veggie patty. The introduction of the Vegan Bacon Cheeseburger represents the first time that the restaurant will incorporate plant-based ingredients that are not made in-house. Since its opening more than a decade ago, Roam has been serving up a rotating seasonal veggie dishes. Its house-made organic veggie burger, made with beets, quinoa, black beans and brown rice is popular among vegetarians and omnivores alike. Best if you don’t forget the hand-cut fries (sweet potato or russet), and a thick hand-spun shake.San Francisco, CA, Novem-( PR.com)- With five Bay Area locations, Roam is well-known for its sustainably-sourced ingredients including pasture-raised meats and local produce. There’s also a killer fried chicken sandwich smothered in melted Gruyère, crunchy cabbage, and a zippy giardiniera aioli. Breakfast in bed comes to mind with the Sunny Side, a flavorful patty topped with a farm-fresh sunnyside up egg, fontina cheese, caramelized onions, and green tomatoes. If a platter of nachos married a burger you’d get the Tejano - a juicy burger topped with corn strips, jalapeno relish, pepper jack cheese, and a slick of herb ranch dressing. You can design your own burger, but signatures like these are hard to beat. Their meat (your choice of beef, bison, or turkey) comes from sustainable ranchers and farmers, produce from local farms, and whatever can be made in-house is - including their fantastic buns (pick from sesame, whole-grain, pretzel, and gluten-free). They’re absolutely among the best burgers in the city, sure, but beyond that, it’s about the thoughtfulness and integrity put into sourcing ingredients.
