Who’s growing what in their "victory" (vegetable) gardens? With any luck, I should have more tomatoes, squash, and melons than I know what to do with this summer. Anybody in the SF Bay Area willing to trade extra crops? (8 replies, last updated by Karen_Schaffer May 27, 2009)

< Hillary Clinton’s vegetable garden pre-dates Michelle Obama’s garden by over a decade. > and long before that, Eleanor Roosevelt had a victory Garden during WWII. I think it was pulled out during Nixon’s... (54 replies, last updated by lgss March 25, 2009)

First let me say that I do think this place is 1st rate. That being said .. I also think it is kinda expensive based on portions & that not much is included. I did not pay my friend took us there. It reminded me of many of the... (0 replies, last updated by wishuwerhere January 30, 2005)

I picked this up when it was new (1993) and somehow never used it. Now it appears people are paying $150 and more on sites like Alibris because it’s out of print and they’ve worn out their original copies. I know the... (1 reply, last updated by Betty May 6, 2003)

I gotta say, my new favorite bar in the Portland is Victory on SE Hawthorne. It’s been around a while but it’s managed to build a nice little following by word of mouth. It’s been rated as one of the best places... (0 replies, last updated by SauceSupreme January 4, 2009)

Our east coast property has 2 ancient apple trees, one Mac and one Russet, that we are trying to bring back. We are organic gardeners for the vegetable plot and I would like to go the all-natural route with these trees, too. All... (2 replies, last updated by LJS May 24, 2009)

I actually really, really like the Victory, and if I have a neighborhood regular place, the Victory is it. The fish is always very good (if they have a tuna and olive thing when you go, get it), and I really like the staff.... (9 replies, last updated by Katerina September 11, 2001)

on Clove Rd a few blocks off Victory Blvd. They were also quite good. I haven’t been there in years, so I don’t know if they’re still top quality. Call me spoiled though, when we moved back to Brooklyn I used to... (8 replies, last updated by PeteDelfino July 8, 2006)

Reviving the oldest thread, ever. The waiter at Gardens of Taxco pronounces it “spy-zee”, really stretching it out for effect. Kinda stupid. He told me “It's not hot.....it's SPYYYYYZEEEEE”. I’ve eaten... (6 replies, last updated by CucumberBoy August 9, 2007)

Lin’s Garden popped up in my memory and a Google search found several posts from last year. I am reviving this thread to ask if anyone who had frequented Lin’s Garden all those many years ago had ever had their unique... (4 replies, last updated by Ivan Stoler December 18, 2002)

another. It seems that EG has added some benches lining the walk to the Garden. They need to expand that 10 minute parking zone until the EG closes, though. After 7, with Cesar and Chez Panisse next door, there’s no quick... (65 replies, last updated by Robert Lauriston April 13, 2006)

doc: the vibe is cool. Victory is more casual than Waterzooi - a little bit younger maybe, and they have several tv’s in the bar/lounge. However, it’s not a dark/dingy/budlight sportsbar scene. I don’t think... (13 replies, last updated by dr d August 13, 2003)
