Thanks so much! 😊 This buffet is something to see for sure. The breakfast buffet was amazing with the pancake and omelet stations. You have me singing "Paint Me a Birmingham" now. We were in Alabama some this summer on our way to Destin, Florida. Thanks for watching and commenting.

The Amish do not own this restaurant and they do not cook in the restaurant. The restaurant is owned by a German Pennsylvania Dutch family but they are not Amish. Many German people in Pennsylvania are not Amish and only some call themselves Pennsylvania Dutch.

Yes they are! The Amish definitely know how to make money. We were recently in Amish Country and saw an Amish girl with a cell phone. Not sure the story behind it. We do love seeing the simpler life that the Amish live. We have eaten in an Amish home before and that was a neat experience.
