荷兰村这间老店铺藏着我儿时的记忆,每逢中秋佳节总是随着这一串串悬挂在店外的灯笼轻轻掀开。

色彩斑斓的灯笼是童年不退色的颜色。

那是80年代初,坐在校车内的我总是被这些精巧可爱的灯笼造型看呆了眼。记得当时不只这家店铺,还有隔壁几间也一起售卖这些旧式玻璃纸制成的灯笼,很有浓浓的节日气氛。

后来隔壁几间搬走了,唯有这家店铺年年都为‘洋派’的荷兰村增添一丁点华族传统节日气息。

这些年来,荷兰村的变迁颇大,高级餐馆纷纷冒起,精品店卖的东西更是高贵典雅,提高了我们的味蕾与生活品味。庆幸老店铺依旧,经营小小的传统,每年的这个时侯一定把各式各样的灯笼高高挂。

我也仿佛每年和它有约,趁这个佳节来临时下去看看,顺便找回儿时的足迹。

I identify with your post completely. I used to look forward to seeing the lanterns go up at this shop every year, without fail, especially the translucent coloured paper ones. Unfortunately, I had to miss it this year because I'm currently living in London.

As you say, I felt like I had a date with it every year, and I'm going to be really sad if it were to ever close. I do wonder how it manages to maintain its business
