What's On Deck: Victory Club, Side of Fries, 20oz. Diet Coke
What's On It: Ham, Turkey, Bacon, Swiss & American Cheese, Lettuce. There might have been some mayo, if there was it wasn't much. All on a toasted White Bread.
What'd It All Cost: $9.50 or so.
We eat at this little corner diner all the time at work because it is pretty much the only thing that is reasonably close to the office. I have seen the Victory Club on the menu before, but usually get the Bacon Cheeseburger, which is excellent, but have never had the Club. But since I had just started this blog, I figured it was my duty to get the club and give it a review. I must say, I was pleasantly surprised. The sandwich was not overwelmingly big, and easy to handle, especially since it was cut in half and not quarters like most other clubs. Don't get me wrong, it was still a big sandwich, but it wasn't so big that it fell apart when I picked it up. The meats were deli cuts, and there was predominately more ham on the sandwich than turkey so it made it a little more salty than I prefer. The bacon was good, not to crispy, not to flimsy/chewy, just right. I enjoyed the 2 different cheeses on the sandwich, once again, no fancy cheese slices, probably from the deli or pre-packaged. The bread was also probably regular sliced white bread, but it went well with the other ingredients. Victory Cafe is not the Cheescake Factory or some big fancy restauarant, its a corner country diner, you know the types of ingredients you are going to get when you walk in. I got a side of fries and a Diet Coke to wash it all down. The fries at Victory are a thick fresh-cut fry, a little greasy but still very good. I couldn't even finish the entire basket and I actually left quite a bit there, which is supprising for me.
What I Would Change: More mayo. Like I said before, I don't think there was any on it and I didn't get a little cup of it brought out with the sandwich. Mayo, or more of it would have really put this one over the top.
