Back in the day, when my husband and I were first together (I can hardly say dating,
since we married a week after first laying eyes on each other! lol)...we used to go
to the Old Spaghetti Factory. Back then they had spaghetti served with medallions of
filet for $6 or $7. It was good, the salad dressing was good, and the tea was
free...plus it included spumoni ice cream for dessert. A full dinner plus tip for
$20, perfect for a young couple just starting out!

It's also where I had my first Italian Cream Soda. Ah, the memories.
