Victoria — Local services in Alamogordo

I went expecting this to be the aforementioned "quilt shop" but there have been some changes. The lovely proprietor, Alice, explained that the foot print of Victoria was just too small for gifts, fabric AND customers all at the same time, so together with Lisa Blevins of Desert Threads, they acquired the storefront next door and opened Pins & Needles, which is the "real" quilt store.

But the gifts, and Alice, in Victoria are lovely and well worth the visit. I will stop back to say Hi the next time I visit Pins & Needles.

It's so unfortunate that the owner of this store spent the money for a 2-page spread in Alamodoso magazine but didn't put in the address or phone number. I had to look it up on Google, and then the link to the web site doesn't work. What a shame to spend that much money on advertising but not give potential customers the important information, and shame on the magazine for not pointing...

Service was good. Food was ok for Cali food. I don't recommend putting it in the fridge and trying to eat it even the morning afterward. They offer a West Coast style chip and salsa bar which you don't see often in the town. Atmosphere is nice , just wish the food was a little better. Might just be mean, I don't think my grandfather or uncle had any complaints....
