Let Prague Delight You with Its Gastronomy
Your have to taste a culture to understand it…
The Czech Republic is not only Prague and its other cities. Whoever visited Prague knows that is a very fascinating and a majestic city, with an incredible architecture all over its streets and narrow alleys.
Its buildings are masterpieces made by artists, but at the same time, you feel the humble atmosphere when you walk through Prague.
Speaking about art and humbleness, we can include its important gastronomy as well. The traditional cuisine from the Czech Republic has flavours in common with the Austrian cuisine and even parts of the Southeast of Germany.
Among its most common ingredients and natural culinary elements, we can find local fruits and vegetables, berries, but especially big varieties of mushrooms, we shall also add to this, rich meats that they use as the main ingredient for most of their dishes.
The popular meat in the Czech cuisine, are meats such as duck and the different ways of preparing it, veal or even wild meats.
On our last trip to Prague, we decided to try different places to taste a bit of everything and with the help of a friend of ours who is a local from the city of Prague, he recommended several places to enjoy typical Czech food as well as their famous beers and the different ways to serve these beers…
In addition to warning us about the places where you should not go because you would only get scammed either by charging you high prices or not getting decent food at all, but at the end, we decided to go to one of those tourist places to try what they serve, and also get the experience of being scammed because a trip is never complete without getting that feeling of being “scammed” by a local person.
We started with the most touristic places and then we have been changing categories such as Haute Cuisine and in this case, we went to one of the best restaurants in the Czech Republic, street food, local restaurants, bars and even to one of the most typical and popular canteens in Prague where they offer traditional Czech food for reasonable prices, and of course, we also tried some of the food served in Pubs and Roof Top bars. We must say that we got very surprised about this last option because we didn’t expect the delicious dishes we got.
Prague taught us a lesson:
“They surprise you where and when you least expect it”
