I was amazed by how much food they're growing in the small space. What a treat this tour was. I've never eaten at either of Rick's restaurants - hard to get my downtown-commuting husband back into the city when he's not working. . . one of these days I might be able to talk him into it!garden girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13284047851881823280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4547783720122066148.post-53979140508098132662009-06-07T08:40:12.237-05:002009-06-07T08:40:12.237-05:00I love how you captured his garden--I didn't take "representative" photos, as it turns out. You also saw details I missed!Monica the Garden Faeriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06369882350990949968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4547783720122066148.post-88967808874377492532009-06-05T06:55:48.140-05:002009-06-05T06:55:48.140-05:00What a pleasure seeing your pictures and Rick's garden, yet another view. Your tomato in the previous post looks yummy. Some of mine remain to be planted.Layaneehttp://ledgeandgardens.typepad.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4547783720122066148.post-5072869695204461192009-06-03T20:35:12.606-05:002009-06-03T20:35:12.606-05:00Jean, I liked this garden...especially the multi-levels and how they combined the entertaining, cooking, growing areas...Row house lots must be smaller then I imagined! This space doesn't look especially large, but a lot was packed into it. Thanks for the information on the foundation...very interesting...I've eaten at Topolobampo and enjoyed the food very much.

I was surprised that Bill said he could grow them all summer long!Carolhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07796344366326535406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4547783720122066148.post-26226107584807102642009-06-03T07:19:32.745-05:002009-06-03T07:19:32.745-05:00It was a pleasure to meet you this weekend, Jean. I even had a short visit with your husband at dinner one night--sounds like he enjoyed himself as well. Thank you for featuring the Rick Bayless garden. I opted not to go, not realizing what I would be missing! There was so much to see and do this weekend it was hard to take it all in. Next year I'm going to sign up for everything! And I'm envious of that yummy tomato; here in Illinois it will be several months before we see our first ripe one.Rosehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4547783720122066148.post-91741899945519275042009-06-03T04:47:48.949-05:002009-06-03T04:47:48.949-05:00My eyes read "Rick" but my mind read "Skip". I thought to myself, "What? Skip Bayless has a garden?" Rick and Skip are brothers, you probably know that already. Skip is a well-known sports journalist and does ESPN TV. Very interesting post.donnahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06950476333013336671noreply@blogger.com
