In modern days, Amish quilts look quite a bit different than those that were first created in the 1870s. With the country’s bicentennial in 1976, many Americans began to look back on the country’s past. As they did this, Amish-made quilts grew in popularity.

Hearty meals of fried chicken and slow-roasted beef with all the trimmings, homemade noodles and fresh-baked pies—that’s Amish-style dining at its best. This belt-loosening fare is the specialty at many Amish Country restaurants, from cozy corner cafes to huge dining rooms where families pass heaping platters and bowls around the tables. But you’ll want to experience Amish Country’s fine-dining restaurants as well, serving innovative and creative dishes often complemented with selections of outstanding wines. Discovering small restaurants known by the locals for their delicious food is another memorable part of any visit to Amish Country.

You may have heard of the Amish from the film "Witness" starring Harrison Ford and Kelly McGillis. This is a work of entertainment and not a documentary of Amish life. You may ... have heard that the Amish are "stuck in time," but this is not true, either, as you will see. If you have actually visited "Amish Country," then you may know a little more about these people. The Amish are not easy to get acquainted with because their religious beliefs require separation from the non-Amish world.
