Fayetteville’s invisible spaghetti web

To say that restaurants in Fayetteville, North Carolina serve spaghetti is an insult to spaghetti.

The presumption that spaghetti noodles are so ho-hum that they’re only ever seen in the company of tomato-based meat sauce is rebutted by menus across town. At pizzerias, diners, and sandwich shops, patrons are offered their pick of spaghetti seven different ways. Are you in the mood for spaghetti with pepperoni slices? Perhaps you’d prefer spaghetti with mushrooms, armored by a thick layer of broiled and bronzed cheese.
