Sweet Baking in Prague

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2021/03/25

A few weeks ago, we posted about our favorite bakeries in Prague specifically for bread. This time around, we will have a look at our favorite bakeries or coffee shops for something sweet. And boy do we know a thing or two about „something sweet“. If you’ve been following us, you surely know we’re on a never-ending #kolachehunt, and we rarely say no to something sweet along with our coffee. So while our bodies suffer, why can’t you get something out of our… ahem… research? Three notes about

Zuzi's and Jan's Five Favorite Meals Around the World

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2021/03/04

File this under „the question no-one’s ever asked us“, but hey Taste of Prague, what’s the five favorite meals on your travels around the world? Hey, if you haven’t noticed, it’s been a really slow year for us, the tourism industry in general, and Prague restaurants, so this is high time we tear up a bit as we recall that thing we used to call… what was it again… travel? Anyway, consider this inspiration for your own travels when this whole thing blows over. So here we go, Zuzi’s and Jan’s

Traveling in the middle of a pandemic

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2021/02/24

We tried a trip to Dubai during a pandemic so that you don’t have to. It was great. And it turned out very sad. Jan liked to say that Taste of Prague was not part of „tourism“. It was part of the food industry. Well, the pandemic proved him very, very, very wrong. We were indeed part of the tourism industry, as manifested by the fact that just like most of our colleagues, we have had exactly zero business for the past year or so. You think restaurants are hurting? Look at the tourism

Specialty Coffee in Prague: the 2021 edition

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2021/02/16

We tend to write about specialty coffee in Prague every year or so, and it’s about time we revisit our piece on Prague coffee scene again because while most things have stayed the same, some might never stay the same after 2020. For comparison, check this very same post for 2020. Again this year, we’d like to split our coffee guide to Prague into two posts: the first that explains the local coffee culture and will help you navigate the lay of the land when it comes to coffee in Prague.

Guide to Valentine's Day Take-Out Meals in Prague

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2021/02/11

St Valentine’s Day is quickly approaching, and what better way to show your love and appreciation for your better half than not kill them and yourself after a year of being stuck in quarantine together? Oh yeah, a Valentine’s Day dinner. Sure, forgot about that one. But unless a miracle happens in the next few days, Prague will still be spending Valentine’s Day in a shutdown, so a romantic dinner will have to be a home affair. Again. But you can still win at life and become the hero your

Covid Restrictions in the Czech Republic, aka How the...

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2021/02/04

So you’re itching to get to Prague or the rest of the Czech Republic and wonder what the Covid restrictions in the Czech Republic are now, or what are the Covid travel requirements to get entry in the Czech Republic Easy. There are two good sources for that: The US Embassy in Prague has a great and frequently updated overview of the entire Covid situation in the Czech Republic and whether foreign travellers (with a special focus on US citizens, obviously) are allowed in the country and on

Take-Out Food in Prague: The Where, The What and The How

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2021/01/28

Let us start with a confession: before the whole Covid thing, we had never ordered takeout food home. Ever. The whole idea of Taste of Prague was showing the best food and the best experiences money can buy in Prague, especially if you’re visiting from abroad, so ordering take-out food home would have defeated the whole purpose. Well, a year into this goddamn pandemic, things are a bit different. If our math is correct, indoor dining was allowed in Prague for only 15 days out of the last 100

Czech Movies You Should Watch Online

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2021/01/21

Whenever we travel, we always make a point of seeing a movie: the fact that it’s such a common and familiar scene only highlights the little differences between cultures. And we also like to see a movie popular in the destination we’re eyeing because - again - it shows the human experience from a point of view that may be different than your own. This will sound strange, but for instance Jan never really wanted to particularly visit Miami until he saw Moonlight. So we thought we’d give you

Meet our Summer House

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2021/01/14

Confession: We never really wanted a summer house. Zuzi said that people who have one tend to become slaves to it, and once they buy it, they stop travelling abroad. We never wanted that. Also, it should be noted - for those not growing up in Czechia - that summer houses are a big deal here. Having a summer house under Communism was having a little safe haven, a „room of one’s own“, but in a completely different sense. Many people had one, while others aspired to have one. Buying and selling

Five Things We'd Love to See More of in 2021

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2021/01/06

So 2020 is behind us. Right now, everything’s shut down and indoor dining is out. Our daily new coronavirus infections in the Czech Republic have reached record highs, so no one can predict when indoor dining will be an option again. Things look bleak at the moment but hey, let’s look at the silver lining here. This can be an opportunity for a change. A change for the better. It may seem like an odd idea to complain at this particular moment, but we honestly see this as a challenge, and

What brought us joy in 2020

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2020/12/31

So let’s be honest here: 2020 sucked hard for just about everyone except maybe divorce lawyers and real estate agents who focused on summer houses and cottages in the Czech Republic. So we thought we’d end the year with something nicer and more positive - you know, it wasn’t all that bad. So we asked some of our friends from the food industry, many of whom were guests of our podcast over the last year, two very simple questions: 1. What has brought you most joy in 2020? 2. What are you

2020 Prague Food Scene Round-up

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2020/12/31

We’ve been writing these annual round-ups for quite some time but year 2020 has been… well, you know. Difficult. You’d say a list of new openings for 2020 would be very short. Well, we’re happy to report you’d be wrong. Sure, Prague’s cocktail scene, for instance, did not experience a Big Bang in 2020, for obvious reasons, but the coffee scene has added a few hefty players. And there’s a few new restaurants, too. Yes, crazy. Let’s get to it.

Prague Christmas Dining Guide... 2020 Edition

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2020/12/22

We’ve been writing Prague Christmas and NYE dining guide for a few years now. But just like with everything else, the guide in 2020 will be different - our current shutdown prevents us from eating outside during the holiday season, so we will be focusing on take-out and pre-made meals for the home. Now, for the readers abroad: the vast majority of Czechs eat their Christmas Eve dinner at home in the circle of their closest family, and the dinner tends to steer towards fish, especially carp,

Instead, what you’ll find below are some tried ands tested tips for high quality products made in the Czech Republic and elsewhere. Let’s get to it!

We’ve been using it for over a week now, and we’re ready to give you a thumbs up or a thumbs down on it. So what’s it going to be? Does it work well? Is it a good gift? Read on.

Prague Specialty Coffee Take Out Windows - a Cheat Sheet

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2020/10/19

Where can you have good coffee in Prague to go when indoor dining, and sipping, is not allowed due to the coronavirus pandemic? That is the questions we have asked - and answered - for you. We love specialty coffee, and we write about Prague coffee shops quite regularly here: the last time we did it was in January 2020. Oh, those were the happy, innocent days: little did we know how great the 2020 would turn out to be. Still, the January 2020 is a good resource on specialty coffee in Prague

Our Trip to Tuscany, and Travel in the Times of Covid-19

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2020/07/15

It was only a few weeks ago when we thought that international travel was a thing of, well, the distant future, and we would be stuck in Czechia for the rest of 2020. But as most borders within the EU opened at the beginning of July, we have decided to take a trip to Chianti, a part of Tuscany, that we had been actually contemplating last year already. This post is not a detailed list of places we visited and restaurants where we ate at. It’s more a report on how things went in general in

Disclaimer: before you read the following, please be informed we own two pairs of Michelin tires on our car. They are great, and I recommend them. Also, this is Jan's writing and his opinions may not represent the opinions of the entire Taste of Prague team. Zuzi told me to write this. We have covered the Michelin guide's choices for Prague in the past here, liking them to celebrities to explain them better if you've never been to any.

Moravian Wine Tour Report

The Moravian wine country is still pretty much a hidden gem whenever you are a foreign visitor or actually a Prague resident. And with domestic travel being hot at the moment (guess why?), we thought we'd give you a few pointers and tips when it comes to tasting great Moravian wines. How do we do it? Simple: we'll give you a report of our latest Moravian wine tour weekend. The wheres, the whats, the hows. Also, this is obviously a shameless plug of our Moravian wine tour, which is - you
