Saskatoon Slideshows: Blue Plate Special
Saskatoon Public Library Presents: Saskatoon Slideshows – Blue Plate Special
Drop in and explore the history of Saskatoon through the lens of the Local History photograph collection.
Going out for a restaurant meal has been a part of Saskatoon’s history almost since its inception. Although the Temperance Society forbade alcohol, dining out has long been a Saskatoon tradition. The Chinese, Greek, and ethnic communities started eating establishments early on; in fact, Saskatoon had a Chinese restaurant as early as 1902. Over the years, Saskatoon has been reputed to have one of the highest number of restaurants per capita in Canada. Come see photographs of Saskatoon’s early restaurant culture, and take a look through some vintage menus!
