I am a big fan of chocolate. And a very big fan of much chocolate. So chocolate desserts always catch my attention - and especially chocolate fondant. When the warm, soft, gooey stuff just slowly oozes out from the centre of this beautiful cake - I am completely sold. So why not make them myself? How hard can it be? Well, I tried, and I got it almost right - and when I bake the rest of them, my

This small article is not going to be very friendly towards Restaurant Mireille on Korunní street in Vinohrady. It is not because I bear a grudge against them for taking over the spot, where restaurant U Slaviku used to serve Prague's best Pork Knee (pecene Koleno) - because I guess U Slaviku went out of business by their own mistake. The interior is very pleasant and stylish. I like it! I've

These days it is almost 3 years ago I first visited U Emy Destinnove in Kateřinská Street. I had been reading some interesting things on www.expats.cz, so I invited my Moravian friend, Mr. K-Holz there for dinner one night in December 2007. Steven Trumpfheller behind the bar, mixing our aperitifs. The lady in the background is Ema Destinn - the most famous opera singer of the Czech republic.

It seems that expats have a thing with chasing the best burgers in Prague. And unfortunately it isn't that easy to find one which deserves honourable mentioning. Brewsta had made a top 16 list of his favourite burgers in Prague. BF and I have tried several from this list (and several others), but we still haven't been blown away by any of them. A few comments: Brewsta's no. 13, Mozaika: You'll

Usually I am not the kind of person who finds ads on facebook interesting at all. But on the other hand, I always like to save money, so recently I clicked on an ad for a website called "Slevomat" - sleva being one of my favourite words in Czech. The idea of the website is that they have daily offers where you can buy a voucher for for instance a meal, some massage, fligts with hot air balloons

Recently BF started in a new job working as a receptionist in a small hotel on the border of Nove Mesto and Zizkov. And as he works 24 hours shifts from 9 PM to 9 PM, I usually want to meet him for a late dinner when his shift is over, so he'll be recharged just a little bit after work. I searched a bit in the area close to this new workplace - and my eye caught the website of Hybernia Restaurant

Some of the articles on this blog are not going to be reviews in the proper meaning of the word. More likely they'll be mentioning of places, where we've eaten, and of course you'll know if we were satisfied or not. Usually not high-end eateries, but the everyday places we go to, because we enjoy it, and because we can afford it. This article about Restaurant Sokolovna in Vinohrady is exactly

I am no connoisseur of Indian food - on the contrary. Where I come from, we don't have any Indian restaurants at all, I must confess, so my experience stems from my visits with friends in Blackpool - and from Indian restaurants in Prague. It is actually a pity, because I enjoy it very much. I am still confused about the menus, simply because I am not sure what to expect. So for that reason, my

It has been a very long while since I posted in this blog. And quite frankly, I don't believe anybody cares. But inspired by mainly blogs about food in Prague, I decided to give it a go again. I'll be focusing on the experiences I have in Prague, when time, money, and the weather allows. And I'll try to show you photos of some of all the nice you can experience in this lovely city.

I meant to post more frequently than I have been doing. Sorry about that.So since last time it has changed from autumn to winter. This means that not so many tourists are here, which is a pity. Not only because I would love to get their bookings in my Prague Apartments (of course I would), but also because there are a lot of reasons for visiting Prague during the winter. Prices on accommodation

A lot of people don't realize it, but Prague is on the same degree of latitude as Paris - and we have a climate which resembles Paris as well. So you can probably imagine what "April in Prague" must be like :-)This year the weather has been changing a lot. Last week and the week before we had some very beautiful days with lots of sunshine, a blue sky and temperatures which suggested that autumns
