点评:Take a venture back in time by visiting the End of The Commons General Store. It’s location in Mesopotamia; Ohio gives you the impression you are visiting a biblical town. The store was built in 1840 by an Amish family that remains in the hands of family members. The Commons Café has a counter with fresh meats and cheeses. There were various sandwiches to take out or dine in for lunch or dinner. There were numerous flavors of penny candy, old fashioned sodas and hand-dipped ice cream. There were delicious samples of jam & jellies. There were antique items such as a pot belly stove and a player piano. There is a “filling” station next door to accommodate the “horse” power of automobiles. There were horse-drawn buggies of the Amish people doing their daily shopping. Across the street of the General Store is a parking lot for cars and an area with a giant wooden horse and wagon. The wooden horse is a fine example of the Amish craftmanship. Oh, by the way, if your down on your luck, there was a barrel full of lucky horseshoes.
翻译:不妨前往“End of The Commons杂货店”,体验一次时光倒流的奇妙之旅。这家店位于俄亥俄州的美索不达米亚镇,让人仿佛置身于《圣经》中的小镇一般。该店由一个阿米什家庭于1840年创立,至今仍由其家族成员经营。店铺内的Commons咖啡馆设有售卖新鲜肉类和奶酪的柜台。这里提供多种三明治,可供外带或堂食作为午餐或晚餐。此外,还有各式廉价糖果、传统汽水以及手工制作的冰淇淋可供享用。有各种美味的果酱和果胶样品。还有肚鼓式炉灶、自动钢琴等古董物品。隔壁设有一个“充气站”,专门为汽车补充“马力”。能看到阿米什人驾着马车进行日常采购。杂货店对面有一个汽车停车场,还有一片摆放着巨大木制马匹与马车的区域。那匹木制马是阿米什人工艺水平的绝佳典范。哦,顺便一提。如果你运气不佳,那里有个桶,里面装满了能带来好运的马蹄铁。
