CA2011 - The Old Spaghetti Factory

Located in Gastown, 50 yards away from the birth place of Vancouver, The Old Spaghetti Factory that opened its doors in 1970, includes many authentic memories that was part of Vancouver as decorations into the restaurant.

 

 

Right in the middle of the restaurant is also the famous Street Car that was originally built in 1904. After working as a passenger car, travelling thousands of miles on Vancouver’s streets, the car was saved from destruction to be displayed at the restaurant.

 

 

Customers can even choose to dine inside the Street Car.

 

 

In order to stay “old”, their newspaper-styled menu also included advertisements for a $4 carriage, $3.50 wood box wagon, $1 corset, $1.40 leather shoes, and a $4.25 dress, all from the 70s.

 

 

After browsing through their interesting menu, we settled for their Clam Chowder, …

 

 

… Teriyaki Chicken Wings …

 

 

… Penne with Chicken …

 

 

… and the most unexpected, Red Thai Curry Linguine with Prawns.

 

 

Our dinner then ended with a serving of Spumoni ice cream each.

 

 

I really wondered if the restaurant was also known as “Old” back in the 1970s!!
