Well, last year we were asking about the Spaghetti tree in Ticino, which was possibly the biggest TV hoax ever broadcasted by the BBC’s Richard Dimbleby in commemoration of April Fools’ Day 1957. In those days many people knew only “Spaghetti in a can”, fresh homemade pasta with home cooked sauces were not popular yet.
Fact is though, that Spaghetti are still available in cans, as the picture - recently taken in a local supermarket - proves. The taste is …. well, we do not want to know!
If you want to taste THE REAL THING; here’s the news for Pasta Aficionados - as of April 1st, 2010 (no April Fools’ joke) every Wednesday is Pasta night. We knock off 20% on all pasta dishes (including ravioli or lasagne).
Our selection of pasta can be found by clicking PASTA TICINO. This promotion stands alone, cannot be combined with any other promotion and applies only on bills which are paid in full, either cash or credit card - vouchers are not eligible.
Buon Appetito a tutti!
