Ave, amici! My name is Aselina and I ran a caupona in Pompeii . I turn to my business ...come with me ! As you can see, the area is a real highlight of Pompeii on Via Abundance, not far from the forum, along with other taverns, elegant houses and some industries ... the bottom of this street are the Amphitheatre and the Palestra ...... you had to see the number of people who come when there are shows!
Do not stay there! Go through, go to my tavern ! My place has two floors : the ground floor where patrons drink or take some fast food , standing , leaning on the bar or can be accommodated in the tables at the back where we serve with more attention and where they can chat and play a little ... In the background there are stairs leading to the second floor where I have several rooms for rent and rooms where the waitresses who help me in the local live. The bar has dolios ceramic to keep the wine and food at a good temperature .
I tell you this in confidence although many of my clients already know: I have also , at the bottom of the restaurant a couch with their sofas ... I even sent paint on one wall a beautiful painting of Apelles . I'm also doing me a viridarium , a small indoor garden with a good vine for shade and a part destined to grow herbs to flavor dishes in my restaurant . Today you will know the gardener who will give the final shape to this project. As I am a pious woman , in my tavern I have an altar dedicated to the Lares , household gods , and the god Mercury to the right of the entrance . It is the god of commerce and ask protection for my business !. Now go out into the street and look at the graffiti they have painted on the wall ; we are in election year ... Look , there are the names of some candidates , the charges to which they aspire and their supporters ... are also inscribed the names of my three waitresses : Smyrna , who came from the East; Aegle , the Greek contribution to my business, and Mary ... and also my name Aselina .
And here , on the board of the tables and wall off the menu ( you can also play on it if you like ... and make a bet on craps ) . Are you urge one ?(h)abemus in cena pullumpiscem pernampa(vo)onem venationes Everyone knows my local as " the Aselinas "; here the men talk about politics and my views and those of the girls are very respected . When GayoLollius Fusco , was presented to the municipal elections Smyrna and I wrote an electoral graphite encouraging everyone to vote for him. I do not know if it was that, but ... it was elected !. Now, when they return the elections, all seek our support ... and our graffiti ... the best advertising ! In this poster, the price of wine :
Well, folks ... It is beginning to be time to prepare food. The chef is working within (an expert cook) and I come to buy vegetables and meat today. I leave you. Then we keep talking ... a friend who might come ye know : a gardener, famous huh ? I want to see how to improve my yard ... it will cost me money ... Finally ! Salvete !
Hello friends! My name Aselina and I own a restaurant very fashionable in Guadalajara; my property is part of a set in one of the most commercial areas of the city. I will show how and invite you to visit us.
Well, you saw how I run my business in Pompeii . Write down a trial with what you think of what you have seen and bring out any conclusions regarding the importance of this type of business, the presence of women, the development we have ... any reflection will be important. Salvete, amici! You have seen how I run my local in Guadalajara. I wish from the images that I have shown and compare how we have been adapting what we learned from Rome to the needs of today's world .
