Just a little advice about going to the Mathews auction in Plain City, Ohio.
Back around 1989 I cleaned out a oil jobber in Plain City, but I had to go to the little town a couple of times to get all the stuff.
The jobber would always have me meet him at the local restaurent. It is a great Amish"?" restaurent, with great food, breakfast, lunch, or supper. I have eaten there many times and recommend anyone of you who are going to the auction, get their early and go to the restaurent.
Don't worry about where it is, it is in the middle of town, with a great big parking lot, a great porch that sorrunds the building, with plenty of rocking chairs.
This restaurent is so good, I go there any chance I can, even if nothing is going on.

Thanks for the tip Jack. Any time I go somewhere I don't know where the local good eats are it forces me to do fast-food----which I hate. I will probably try it as I plan on going to the auction.

Hey Jack - the name of that Amish restaurant is Der Dutchman. Definitely worth a visit - great home cookin'!

I have eaten many times at this restaurant and I ate there again today. It is good food.
