Day 25: Eat till you drop

Its been a while since I blogged. Been rather tired and shit. And feeling dam sian cos I’m falling sick. Must be the opened carriage window in the train that caused this. Nose kinda leaky now. =/

Anyway, greetings from Prague! It’s a really beautiful city, full of history and its own unique culture of beer drinking. It’s a tad bit too crowded though. But oh wells, its rated as the top 3 must-go places in Europe even with the crowds. Its transiting into Autumn now and the temperature is getting colder. The first time we stepped off the train, we were like O M G why isit so cold! But thank goodness it warmed up towards the afternoon!

Like all the Eastern European countries, its relatively cheap and I must say the meal portions here are enormous! I think their plan is to stuff tourist with so much food that they can’t stand up after the meal to control the crowd in old town. Haha.  Beer here is awesome. We are literally drinking it like water! With hundreds of microbreweries around, we get to try a new beer every meal! The price of restaurants here is gauged by their beer prices. An affordable one would have a 0.5l of beer going from 25-50 CZK (1-2.4 Eu)! Real cheap! I think most of Czech cuisine consists mainly of meat. Very hearty meals indeed! But I think the grilled and smoke style of cooking is so much less gerlat compared to the polish and Hungarian style.

Would recommend

Free walking tour (www.newpraguetours.com) by sandermans, great walking tour although it aint led by locals.

Head to
U Medvidku (Ns Perstyne)
And order any kind of meat. It’ll be awesome. They are the original brewers of Budweiser.

Pivoarsky Klub (Krizikova 17)
A little bit pricier but like freaking huge selection of beers! The beer menu is thicker than the food menu. Pork Knuckle goes for 0.5 CZK/g.

Corsaire (Linhartska 134/2, Praha 1)
Good service plus good food too!
