Eating Alone Together, pt VIII: El Camino's May 1...

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2020/04/28

This time food will be served by the amazing El Camino Tapas Restaurant. Yeah, we know, it only opened in December, but the pedigree is there: Mr David Böhm lead the iconic Medité restaurant in Mariensbad. And he worked in a few Michelin stars in Spain. ‘Nuff said. Let’s be honest here: normally, it would make no sense to recommend a Spanish tapas bar with a focus on seafood in Prague. But guess what: El Camino earns our full and unconditional recommendation. It’s amazing regardless of the

Eating Alone Together, pt VII: Get a Drink with Parlour

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2020/04/23

The seventh episode of our Eating Alone Together series is not about eating at all. It’s about drinking. Because let’s be real: after a month+ of quarantine, we all need a drink. And when we here at Taste of Prague need a drink, the first place we turn to is the infamous Parlour bar, one of our favorite cocktail bars in Prague . And we know: you can argue with just about anything when it comes to Parlour, a bar run by two philosophers of mixology, a bar that serves Pringles as the only food,

2020/04/22

There are only a few kitchens in Prague more exciting and daring than Taro and Gao Den. We just love ‘em! Both strike the perfect balance between casual and refined (moving on both ends on the spectrum), taking hints from both the Vietnamese background of the owners (while going way beyond the usual suspects on the menus of Prague’s Vietnamese bistros) and the Czech context in which they work. Heck, if Taro was good enough for a review in The New York Times, it’s good for us. Since Taro is

We all know and love the burgers by Dish Fine Burger Bistro. Ever since they opened to great hype a few years ago, they’ve been one of the most reliably great burgers in town, building a loyal following in the meantime. But wait, have you ever wanted to create your own Dish burger at home? You have? This is your chance. Dish took this opportunity to preview their “Dish Kit” for two: a DIY burger set for two that offers lots of fun and - when you scroll down to see their menu - tremendous

The popular Gabi and Petr of the PG Foodies food blog have opened the bistro with no prior restaurant experience just months ago, and it’s been a running success ever since. And since we’re friends, we have decided to treat ourselves and all of you to something nice this Sunday! We offer two versions: 1. one with a beautiful flower by the girls of Uvila (with a special price of CZK 150). Turn the romance to eleven! 2. one without the flower by Uvila. You cheapo. The Menu *

2020/04/13

So it’s been a month since we entered a lockdown here in the Czech Republic to fight the spread of the coronavirus. We know that many of the guests of our Prague food tours have fallen in love in Prague and have been asking us about how we were doing, so this is an update about life in Prague after a month in quarantine. If you’re Czech, feel free to skip this unless you want to know what our opinion on the current and future state of restaurants in Prague and on our very own presence and

Eating Alone Together in Quarantine, pt III: Big Smokers

2020/04/12

Whether you’re social or anti-social, you are probably staying at home. But you can still eat well and in style, right? At least now you can, with our Easting Alone Together series of dinners and special events. What is “Eating Alone Together”? Oh, so glad you asked. It’s easy: 1. We miss the restaurant experience: sharing a nice moment with someone you love, over some great food, in a restaurant you both love. 2. Food is more than just take-away pizza that you eat in sweatpants

Whether you’re social or anti-social, you are probably staying at home, and you can still eat well and in style, right? Joking aside, oh, how we miss the restaurant experience. You know, food is not just about stuffing your face: it is also about sharing a nice moment with someone you love (although you may not be able to stand them anymore after 2+ weeks of self-isolating at home, we get it). To stop for a moment, just talk, have some nice bites and maybe a bit of wine or a drink, and just

The short version: As much as we would love to fulfill our commitment to our guests who have been so generous to have booked a tour with us, we now have to, given the circumstances well beyond our control, suspend all of our tours starting tomorrow until further notice. If you have booked a tour with us due in the weeks that follow, you will be receiving a message shortly. For the long version, please continue reading.

Prague off the beaten path: Vinohrady district

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2020/03/01

The Vinohrady district is a place of many appeals. Originally a place for vineyards (which is what “Vinohrady” means, anyway), Vinohrady witnessed a population boom in the late 19th and early 20th century, becoming the fourth biggest town in the Czech Republic alone before it became a part of Prague in 1922. It is a district of affluence and beauty, with Art Deco houses and lush trees and beautiful parks overlooking either the centre or other parts of the city. It is also very popular among

Best Coffee Shops in Prague, 2020 edition

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2020/01/22

We wrote about Prague’s coffee scene and the reasons why it’s so great last week (TL;DR version: specialty coffee now a standard, young people, barista a viable career here, and high standard of skill), but this week it’s time to list our favorite specialty coffee shops in Prague. Before we get to the list, a few details on how we choose the coffee shops and why maybe your favorite is not included. We write this blog as a service to the guests of our awesome Prague food tours, and these

Specialty Coffee in Prague: the 2020 edition

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2020/01/13

So it’s been nearly three years since we wrote about specialty coffee shops in Prague. And it’s high time to revisit Prague coffee again - just last year, Prague saw the opening of nearly 10 coffee shops that serve specialty coffee - which is astonishing, if you realize that we didn’t even have 10 coffee shops that served specialty coffee some eight, nine years ago. This time, we’d like to split our coffee guide to Prague into two posts: the first that explains the local coffee culture and

Prague Food Scene: 2019 in review

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2020/01/06

We dread the „Year in review“ articles. „Oh, nothing has opened this year. What are we going to write about? Prague is not NYC, you know? It’s not like something new opens every week. Jeez, this is gonna be boooooring!!!!“ Oh well. But then you start counting. What the heck? 48 new places worth a mention? And we’re pretty sure we forgot a few. Which boils down to nearly… wait for it… one opening every week. Yup. Hold our beer, NYC! Prague coming through! Well, obviously, we’re not there yet,

Peace and calm, silent night, Christmas is all about family, friendship, the birth of the Savior, crazy sweaters and kisses under the mistletoe. Yeah, right. Let’s cut the crap. Christmas is all about the presents. Don’t agree? Let’s put it to a test: try not giving one to your loved ones this Christmas. Not so tough now, big man, huh? Exactly.

Prague Holiday Dining Guide 2019

Spoiler alert: If you’re spending Christmas in Prague and are reading this in December without a reservation for Christmas Eve dinner, you’re already screwed. Panic and/or stock up on food now. Prague dining used to be so easy. When we started our Prague food tours back in 2011, we could make reservations for a tour hours before, and restaurants would have a table. While this all has changed and now you need to book sometimes well in advance for the popular restaurants and hours in Prague,

Prague off the beaten path: Karlin district

Taste of Prague Podcast ·

2019/08/15

We have one rule whenever we travel: we visit the main sights early in the morning or late in the evening to beat the crowds, and see the other, more local things during the day. When we visit a city, we prefer to see how people live there today, and not necessarily how they lived there in the past. And Prague is no exception. Especially during the high season, we recommend getting up early, seeing the sights before all the other people get to see them, and then just walk and explore the

The beginner's guide to beer in Prague

2019/07/29

You know what they say: ”The best Czech wine is… beer.” Of course, this is disrespectful of the beautiful Czech and Moravian wine production that we are so fond of, but the undeniable fact is that the Czech beer culture is one of the strongest unifying themes in the Czech national identity. While ”Czech Republic means beer” may sound as a cliché, it is mostly right. We Czechs actually do love beer and drink a lot of it. And the Czech beer culture is unique in several ways. Beer is to Czechs

Hana's Five Favorites in Prague

In an ideal world, Hana would have been the first team mate we would have hired. We did talk about her joining us waaaay back when Taste of Prague was just Zuzi and Jan. But we don’t live in an ideal world, and Hana was not ready to leave the big law she was practicing at the time, just like Zuzi did a few years before. Fast forward five years later, and we are incredibly happy to welcome Hana to our small team. She will fit in like a glove - she loves food and other people’s company. She
