Call it something of an obsession for the Jordanian immigrant, who recently opened Petaluma’s Slamburger. Featuring big flavors influenced by the aromatic herbs and spices of his homeland, these are burgers with some serious bite. Our fave, however, is the fungusladen ’Shroomaluma with Cremini mushrooms, lettuce, Swiss cheese, peach barbecue sauce, tomato and house pickles.

The original owner, Mike Condrin, set up at the Petaluma Livestock Auction Yard in the early 1990s with his own quirky set of rules (he wouldn’t serve fries and it was an extra nickel to order your burger without cheese). But the burgers were excellent, and Mike was a legend. Ownership changed a while back when Mike retired, but all of his favorite burgers are still on the menu, including this take on a Reuben. It’s got all the usual fixings: corned beef, Swiss cheese, Thousand Island dressing) piled on a burger. Plus, they’re serving fries now. \u003cem>840 Petaluma Blvd. N., Petaluma,\u003c/em> 707-778-8222, and \u003cem>7665 Old Redwood Highway, Cotati,\u003c/em> 707-665-9999, \u003ca href=\"http://mikesatthecrossroads.com/\">\u003cem>mikesatthecrossroads.com.\u003c/em>\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_118228\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1024px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Vegan Barbecue Burger, The Drawing Board, Petaluma\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=\"size-full wp-image-118228\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683-800x534.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Vegan Barbecue Burger, The Drawing Board, Petaluma\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>MEATLESS BURGERS: Vegan Barbecue Burger, The Drawing Board, Petaluma, $15\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThis barbecue black bean veggie burger is served with caramelized onions, house-made cashew cream cheese and sprouts on a long-fermented sourdough bun from Revolution Bread.

Its tried-and-true formula was simple: honest burgers, fries and onion rings served up in red plastic baskets around an old-school lunch counter. The burgers are still fried up to order, but we like one of the restaurant’s new-school burgers, served with a charbroiled pineapple slice, ham and teriyaki glaze. You just know a burger’s gonna be good when the counter sports rolls of paper towels rather than napkins. \u003cem>1501 Fourth St., Santa Rosa,\u003c/em> 707-5464016, \u003cem>9238 Old Redwood Highway, Windsor,\u003c/em> 707-620-0745, and \u003cem>7981 Old Redwood Highway, Cotati,\u003c/em> 707-6659790, \u003ca href=\"http://www.originalsuperburger.com/\">\u003cem>originalsuperburger.com.\u003c/em>\u003c/a> \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_118234\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1024px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/HI1016_STARTINGFROMSCRATCH_PATTYMELT_818538-1024x731.jpg\" alt=\"Patty Melt, Starting from Scratch Cafe, Santa Rosa\" width=\"1024\" height=\"731\" class=\"size-full wp-image-118234\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/HI1016_STARTINGFROMSCRATCH_PATTYMELT_818538-1024x731.jpg 1024w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/HI1016_STARTINGFROMSCRATCH_PATTYMELT_818538-1024x731-160x114.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/HI1016_STARTINGFROMSCRATCH_PATTYMELT_818538-1024x731-800x571.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/HI1016_STARTINGFROMSCRATCH_PATTYMELT_818538-1024x731-768x548.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/HI1016_STARTINGFROMSCRATCH_PATTYMELT_818538-1024x731-1020x728.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/HI1016_STARTINGFROMSCRATCH_PATTYMELT_818538-1024x731-960x685.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/HI1016_STARTINGFROMSCRATCH_PATTYMELT_818538-1024x731-240x171.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/HI1016_STARTINGFROMSCRATCH_PATTYMELT_818538-1024x731-375x268.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/HI1016_STARTINGFROMSCRATCH_PATTYMELT_818538-1024x731-520x371.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Patty Melt, Starting from Scratch Cafe, Santa Rosa \u003ccite>(Heather Irwin)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>WACKY BURGERS: Patty Melt, Starting from Scratch Cafe, Santa Rosa, $16\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nInside the posh new AgCredit complex near the Sonoma County Airport, longtime caterers Greg and Tammy Long have crated the ultimate melt with grass-fed beef, bacon, avocado, caramelized onions, Havarti cheese and sriracha aioli.

The original owner, Mike Condrin, set up at the Petaluma Livestock Auction Yard in the early 1990s with his own quirky set of rules (he wouldn’t serve fries and it was an extra nickel to order your burger without cheese). But the burgers were excellent, and Mike was a legend. Ownership changed a while back when Mike retired, but all of his favorite burgers are still on the menu, including this take on a Reuben. It’s got all the usual fixings: corned beef, Swiss cheese, Thousand Island dressing) piled on a burger. Plus, they’re serving fries now. \u003cem>840 Petaluma Blvd. N., Petaluma,\u003c/em> 707-778-8222, and \u003cem>7665 Old Redwood Highway, Cotati,\u003c/em> 707-665-9999, \u003ca href=\"http://mikesatthecrossroads.com/\">\u003cem>mikesatthecrossroads.com.\u003c/em>\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_118228\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1024px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Vegan Barbecue Burger, The Drawing Board, Petaluma\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=\"size-full wp-image-118228\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683-800x534.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/06/DRAWINGBOARD_VEGGIEBURGER_HI-1024x683-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Vegan Barbecue Burger, The Drawing Board, Petaluma\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>MEATLESS BURGERS: Vegan Barbecue Burger, The Drawing Board, Petaluma, $15\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThis barbecue black bean veggie burger is served with caramelized onions, house-made cashew cream cheese and sprouts on a long-fermented sourdough bun from Revolution Bread.
