Frugal – A Local/Sustainable Burger

Victory Burger opened a few weeks ago and I finally had a chance to stop by the other day.  I tried the Victory Burger (Five Dot Ranch patty on an Acme Kaiser roll with lettuce, grilled onion and house ketchup, $8) with Bacon Gravy ($.50), which was deliciously messy.  It’s not my favorite burger in the East Bay, but it’s completely satisfying.  The crispy Hand-cut French Fries ($2) were oh so addictive, especially dunked in the Chicken Skin Mayo ($1) and the prices were pretty reasonable for a “locally and sustainably farmed burger, with an artisan bun and organic produce.”  There are a couple other dishes on the menu I want to try: Roast Chicken Bahn Mi (pulled roast chicken on an Acme torpedo roll with veggie slaw, raw jalapeños, fish sauce and chicken skin mayo ($8) and the Veggie Arepa (grilled plantains, sliced avocado, smoked marinated tofu, tamarind-coconut chutney and slaw ($8).  Next time.  Victory Burger is now open for dinner on Fridays and Saturdays and there are plans to add more hours soon.
