I went through a phase in high school where I was obsessed with The Old Spaghetti Factory. It’s a chain of old-timey restaurants set in a historical train station, complete with vintage decor and haunted lore. Despite being a typical family restaurant, meals were served in 3 courses, which made it feel a little fancy. An extra special part of the experience for me, was that the meal ended with a scoop of Spumoni ice cream and your choice of tea or coffee. I remember falling in love with the pistachio flavour and also learning to put a spoonful of my ice cream into my tea to substitute the cream and sugar, with the added benefit of cooling it down a little.

All the nostalgia is channeled into this tee. The vintage stripes, colour, and style bring back the memory of enjoying the simple pleasures in life.
