点评:My husband and I visited this farm—a new spot he chose for my annual apple-cider donut craving, part of our tradition of traveling from Long Island to different farms each year. Unfortunately, what should have been a fun day turned into a deeply uncomfortable and unwelcoming experience.
From the moment we approached the counter, the staff’s behavior toward us felt blatantly discriminatory. As a brown-skinned couple, the message was unmistakable. One older employee looked at me with clear disdain before retreating to the back to speak with another staff member, who then peeked out at us as if we were out of place. The cashier, a younger woman, dragged out her interaction with the couple ahead of us to avoid acknowledging us, and when she finally did, her tone was curt, reluctant, and anything but friendly.
It’s a shame that such a beautiful part of upstate New York is overshadowed by attitudes that feel stuck in the 1950s and 60s, and even more disheartening to see the younger generation mirroring the same narrow-minded behavior.
To top it off, the apple-cider donuts didn’t redeem the visit, they were tiny, overpriced, and absolutely not worth the mistreatment. Overall, this location offered very little beyond an unpleasant and discouraging experience. Not worth the trip and would not recommend.
翻译:我和丈夫去了这家农场——这是他为我每年想吃苹果酒甜甜圈而特意挑选的新地方,也是我们每年从长岛前往不同农场的传统之一。然而,原本应该是充满乐趣的一天,却变成了一次令人极度不适和不愉快的经历。
从我们走到柜台的那一刻起,工作人员对我们的态度就明显带有歧视。作为一对肤色较深的夫妇,这种歧视的意味显而易见。一位年纪较大的员工用明显的轻蔑眼神看着我,然后退到后面去和另一位员工交谈,那位员工随后又探头看了看我们,仿佛我们格格不入。收银员是一位年轻的女士,她故意拖延时间,避免和前面那对夫妇打招呼,最后终于注意到我们时,语气生硬、不情愿,丝毫没有友好之意。
纽约州北部如此美丽的地方,却被仿佛停留在上世纪五六十年代的陈旧观念所笼罩,实在令人惋惜。更令人沮丧的是,年轻一代似乎也抱持着同样的狭隘思想。
雪上加霜的是,苹果酒甜甜圈也未能挽回这次糟糕的体验,它们个头小、价格昂贵,完全不值得忍受这种糟糕的服务。总而言之,除了令人不快和沮丧的体验之外,这个地方几乎一无是处。不值得专程前往,也不推荐。
