As students we certainly enjoyed the $1.95 meals....what a deal! Good to see they are doing this fund raiser. We'll be flying to Palm Springs that day but don't think we would have braved the crowds. I'm sure it will be a great success and it's a great cause. As I remember Jim always got the meatballs and I got a combo of meat sauce and the Brown Butter and Mizithra Cheese. And the Spumoni ice cream was a real treat too as I don't think you could buy it at the time.
Yep, that looks like my combo.
The Old Spaghetti Factory in Vancouver will mark their 50th anniversary on March 3, 2020. From 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., the Gastown restaurant will have their all-inclusive spaghetti entrees available for just $1.75. The offerings will include throwback items like spaghetti with chicken liver sauce.
While the retro prices are certainly enticing, the Old Spaghetti Factory is using their anniversary festivities for a cause better than your own bottom line: On March 3, they'll donate all proceeds from food sales to the BC Professional Fire Fighters’ Burn Fund. Additionally, diners will have the option to add on a donation to their bills.
OSF's Spaghetti Classics (which in 2020 are priced from $12.50-16.50) are part of the restaurant's "it's all included" offerings, which means each pasta main comes with a side of their Italian sourdough bread with whipped garlic and plain butter; your choice of Minestrone soup or a green side salad; Spumoni ice cream for dessert; and hot tea or coffee. Sauces, of course, include traditional options like meatballs, meat sauce, or marinara sauce, or the OSF's signature Brown Butter and Mizithra Cheese, which is a recipe from the OSF's Portland, Oregon-based founder's family.
