Mother's Pizza Parlour and Spaghetti House, or simply Mother's Pizza, is a restaurant in Hamilton, Ontario, opened April 1, 2013. It is the revival of a major 1970s and 1980s chain of the same name, which grew to 120 locations in Canada, the United States, and the United Kingdom.〔 The restaurant is remembered for parlour-style pizza,〔 big mugs,〔 root beer floats, and nostalgic decor such as Tiffany lamps. Along with pizza, the rebooted location will include pasta and salads.〔 ==Reboot, 2013== The chain is now owned by Brian Alger and Geeve Sandhu, who both fondly remember the original chain.〔 Alger bought the Mother's and The Pop Shoppe trademarks, re-establishing the second in 2004, and waiting until 2011 to reboot Mother's.〔 Sandhu joined as operational partner in 2010. Sandhu previously worked for Jack Astor's, and owns three pubs as of 2013.〔 Many of the old franchisees have helped the new location;〔 one of the former franchisees is working to perfect the original dough recipe.〔 The new restaurant retains some classic features, but with a more contemporary feel.〔 Their aim was to replicate what the restaurant would have been like, if it had never left the marketplace.〔 Retained are pitchers of pop, red and white fabric on seats, Tiffany glass panels, and projected black and white films, and newly introduced are old barn beams, and stone walls and distressed oak.〔 Removed are elements including tables made of sewing machines, flashing marquee signs, and swinging parlour-style doors. Alger suggested that he wanted the old uniforms to return, but realized in might not be popular with employees.〔 The new uniforms make reference to the old.〔 The first location was intentionally in Hamilton, given that it hosted the original location of the first chain.〔 Before opening the first location, the partners were scouting for a second.〔 The second Mother's Pizza location opened on May 5, 2014 in Kitchener, ON at 4391 King Street East.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=2nd Mother's Pizza Location Opening This Spring! — Mother's Pizza )〕 A third Mother's Pizza location is expected to open in Spring, 2015 in Brantford, ON at 185 King George Road.〔https://www.facebook.com/MothersPizza〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mother's Pizza」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
