EATING OUR WAY THROUGH PRAGUE (DIY Food Tour)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 сен 2024
- We had the most DELICIOUS weekend eating all kinds of traditional Czech foods - many that we had never even heard of before! We LOVE learning about a country and it’s culture/history through it’s food, and this tour is one of the absolute best #foodtours we’ve ever done! We started out at one of the highest rated tradional Czech restaurants in Prague before heading out to the local farmer's market where we picked up homemade pastries and coffee, then had a massive Czech feast for dinner with traditional Czech beer, goulash and pork knuckle. Next we had lunch part 2 where we tried out Prague street food and we ended the weekend with one of the best rated Vietnamese Restaurants in Prague to eat like the locals do! Other highlights include open faced sandwiches, “chimney cakes,” a trip to a beer garden over looking the city, RAW beef tartare, and pickled cheese! This is our longest video to date and we hope you enjoy watching as much as we enjoyed making it.

Beef tartar is pretty popular all across Europe, and it is delicious.
Hi
your "local pilsner beer" is Pilsner Urquell.
Pilsner Urquell was the world's first pale lager, started in 1842.
It´s named by the city Plzeň (former German name: Pilsen)
Every pils beer, you drink today, goes back to this stuff.
Thanks for the comment! Pretty cool I think, it was certainly very delicious!
Pilsen is not former German name of Plzeň it is still the actual German name of Plzeň as almost each city, town and willage in Bohemia have Czech name and its German variant. Budějovice/Budweis, Klatovy/Klatau, Domažlice/Taus, Praha/Prag etc. ;)
It is a pity I have discovered your channel just recently - could had given you a life saving tip how to avoid running up the stairs to the Prague Castle (especially with a stroller) by simply taking tram 22 up the back side of the hill to Pohořelec. From there you do it all downhill walking with a bonus of some amazing views on Prague.... So maybe next time 😉Regarding the typical Czech food - even though it is now kind of a small chain thing (7 locations in Prague, 2 elsewhere), I cannot recommend anything more than Lokál (my favourite is at Malá Strana just next to the Charles bridge). They use only local supliers, have daily different menu plus few "all time favourite" and cook without any "additives". Also part of this project is Kantýna - combo of own butcher shop and self-service canteen in what used to be a bank building so even the venue is a treat.
Fun fact: there has always been in context of Central Europe quite big Vietnamese minority in CZ, however until I´d say cca 15 years ago most, if not all Asian restaurants and bistros were Chinese. The combination of sometimes already 3rd generation Vietnamese born in CZ and enormous increase in toursits going to S-E Asia (and Vietnam plus Thailand in particular) caused massive spread of first just Pho and later full variety of Vietnamese restaurans.
Guys, you are awesome. Nice video. Nice people. And so sweet baby.
One of the best food presentations of my hometown. Respect!
Oh, how I love Prague and czech food. Svickova is one of my favorite dishes in the world. There is lemon juice in it, which makes it taste fresh. Well done. You. made a good food tour.
Very, very tasty!
Actualy in Svíčková, there is no lemon juice. Yes, it tastes sweet sour, but really not lemon in it. You can put slice of lemon or orange on the meat and on this slice of lemon put whipped cream and cranberry compot or cranberry jam, but no lemon juice in the sauce. ;)
@@davidpelcno nevím jsem kuchař, a do svíčkové u nás vždy na konci dáváme trochu citrónové šťávy...staročeský recept ale i to se může lišit, není v ní na škodu, HLAVNĚ když si omáčka " odpočine " den ,dva právě citrón dodá svěžest
@@hejlik4859 Já jsem také v životě neslyšela o citrónu ve svíčkové. Také jde o tradiční jídlo, takže by logicky mělo být z běžných místních potravin.
@@autumnflower8942 vždycky v restauraci dostanu plátek citronu o čem to proboha mluvíte ? to jako že jsem kdysi neměli citrony ? že se nedovážely ? ... Doma si běžně citron moc lidí nedává, ale to neznamená že tam nemá byt.
The Czech Republic is a cool place, I love hiking there.
And very tasty "home cooking" everywhere.
We really loved the food. I hope we can get to go back in the near future to try more.
They don't have fancy food (as far as I know), but the dumpling slices with the dark sauce mmhhhh
Germany has a lot of old recipies that are somewhat related to Czech food, but it is not the same.
I hope you get some of the wafers, Czech Oblaten (wafers) are a special thing.
@@urlauburlaub2222 In some points I agree. But slavic people came from east in 6th century. Until 16th century we had almost only slavic rulers with latin as lingua franca. In 18th century Maria Theresia established german as lingua franca and czechs started speak mostly german (Im not talking about borderland these Germans came in 13th and 17th century after 30years war, what we lost). In 19th century the Austrians started pretend that whole monarchy is only Austria. So Hungarian and Bohemian kingdoms didnt like it. In Hungary led uprising soldiers and in Bohemia "slavic" scholars. So in 19th century no one came from east.
Sorry for that long post, that has nothing to do with this video. But I needed clear few things.
@@urlauburlaub2222 So when the slavs came there were power vacuum. I dont know what happend to Markomans who lived there with celtic tribe of Boii, when they conquered them, some of tham stayed some of them went into todays Bavaria and built their empire. In our land after that there was Samo empire, who first conected slavic people, after that Great Moravia, where the Slavic heralds from Thessaloniki were sent at the request of the Slavic ruler, who began to preach bible in the Slavic language. The Great Moravia collapsed thanks Hungarians. About 9th century first Přemyslids united Czech tribes in Bohemia and until 10th century we were under german administration and had to pay tham higher and higher tribute. Boleslav didnt like it and stoped pay (after that he had to pay anyway, but it was lower fee). He built new cult of his dead brother Václav and thanks him we had first sants st.Wenceslaus and st. Ludmila (their grandma). Thanks to this our king Přemysl Otakar II. in 13th century obtained his own archbishopric for Prague. Until this time our priest corresponded to the Archbishop of Bavaria. And thanks Golden bulla of Sicily we became almost independent on HRE, becouse the Emperor lost power over the Bohemia. Přemysl needed more people in Mountains, becouse slavs didnt want to leave the fertile valleys, he invited the new germans mostly from Bavaria. In 15. century Jan Hus started preach again in old czech and against to catholic church. Afther his and Wenceslaus (who protected our people against his brother and catholic crusades, becouse he did not allow them to enter our territory) death the first war in central europe against catholics started. After Sigismuns death we (our nobility) chosed our "protestant" king Jiří (George) from Poděbrady. After him we chosed polish Jagellons as our rulers and after them the Habsburgs. We were independent kingdom until 30years war, where we lost our freedom in religion and in 18th when we lost our opportunity to speak Czech at high schools, army and in the offices. And the and is same.
The Czech - slavic origin and we were allways in czech České země (czech lands) or Země koruny České (lands under the czech crown)
The Bohemian - Latin origin and in latin world we were always Bohemian lands (České země) or Lands under the Bohemian crown (Země koruny české)
Böhmen - germanised word with Latin origin (same origin like german word Bavaria, home of the Boiis - celtic tribe)
@@urlauburlaub2222 but on the start you said that in 19th century the slavs came from east and that it is not true, for example in the last 20 years came from east (mostly ukraine) more people than in that time and they asimilated with us. In this time we became slavs again mostly thanks scholars who learned from people in villages, from old czech texts, from russian or "jugoslavian" literature or they started raplaced german words into czech (ex. šnuptychl (hanky) from german Schnupfen into czech čistonosoplena, but it was so long so they brought kapesník into light) Its became "in", "modern" speak czech. But if I remember rightly there was in this time some "slavic congres" when they talked about slavic identity, but this people were maybe from east but like in every congres after its end they returned back home. No one staid here and had power under the "nacional awaykening". And we had identity same like nowadays, we are bohemians, moravians and few silesian living together in czech lands. For that people were Husists the one who conected us, the st. Wenceslaus (protector of our whole land), "the father of our nacion" and best ruler Karl IV. and Jan Hus with his ABC (cz turned into č, sz=š, rz=ř, aa=á, etc.). Yes it was slavic mostly propaganda becouse it mostly happened only in Bohemia but it conected us same way like in nowadays. So I dont understand about who you talked that came from east. Becouse we only mostly turned our thinking and someone even surname (for example from german Wachsmann into czech Voskovec-known czech actor, he played with Werich)
If you want now more you can look at F.L.Věk its about this time, yes its little bit naive and black&white movie. But it describes things understandably. But i dont know if it has subtitles.
Prague was really a great medieval city
Czech Republic did awesome kidsmovies in the past, it was the east blocks Disney if you will.

Hi, inspired by your video we visit the vietamanese restaurant NGO today and try some very tasty dishes : summerrolls, mama's dish, daddys' s dish and of course the walking duck. Delicious! We told the owner, that we are visiting this restaurant because of your video and I showed him the last part of the video with his restaurant. He was very thankfull and happy, and he told us, he remembers you came in with a camera. Thank you very much for this great video.
Oh wow really? This makes my heart happy. Thank you SO much for visiting them and letting them know that our video brought you there. We know that filming can sometimes be a bit intrusive (although we always make an effort to not disturb other guests). But they were SO nice and so courteous (plus the food was amazing). We would love it if more and more people enjoyed their wonderful restaurant.
Wow, I'd say WELL DONE!!! The video helped me a lot. Shared knowledge is of prime importance.One of the most useful contents in my life. ♡ I love all these videos!
Lovely family 👪 👨👦 👨👦👦 Amazing 😇😇😇🥰🥰❤❤❤
Thank you ! Happy new Year!!
Happy New Year!
Good idea for a video. Made me hungry watching it, especially the Vietnamese Restaurant. Good idea for a series! After you ate the beef tartare, you can now try Mett 😀!
We are definately going to have to give it a try with all of the commenters mentioning this dish! I know my dad used to talk about eating Blutwurst growing up and I would love to try it soon. We may need to make a video about trying some of the more unusual (yet tasty) local dishes.
we got plenty of chinese too and last 2 years a lot of kebab but czech cousine we coocked at home..))
Thanks for sharing! Im going to visit these places for sure
Sorry to say that, but you fell most of the time for into tourist traps. None of it is local favorite. Langoš and šunka are scam for that price. Also "trdelník" has nothing to do with Prague or Czech republic. It's just a thing for tourists.
Exactly! I really loved the video till the moment of showing the "Prague ham" and "traditional trdlo" part. The first is a do called charity scam (!) and the second had been literally created by marketing specialists who had to create a Prague "traditional" specialty.
If you come to Prague another time, please check the video's of #Honest Guide about this. These guys are trying to prevent tourists from falling into the tourist traps and to give local insider tourist inspiration. (PS langos is wonderful but Hungarian)
@@jesikas.7737 Hi there. Langoš all over north Croatia also.
:) I was internally screaming here, put the garlic on the bread! So happy someone told you :). And honestly, you must have very good metabolism, the cheese+ tartar, already full meal. :)
Well, if you talk about Klobása there are two types of sausages available in Germany which are a bit similar: Krakauer Bratwurst (looks like a normal German Bratwurst but is red not grey if not yet grilled), there is a other Krakauer which is thicker and different. And sometimes "Käsekrainer" are also similar spiced, but with additional cheese inside. Btw: "Pisner Urquell" is the traditional "Pisner" beer, where the whole name comes from, and from the city of Plzen west of Prague. It is the same tradition that "German" beer is based on, and Urquell if also often sold in Germany. The word "Urquell" is by the way German - from times before nationalism spoiled czech and german people living together.
we czech like bratwurst that smoller one on grill...we grill almost everything..))
Thank so much, I love czech republic and your video is a inspiration for us 🥰👍🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭👏👏💫🌻🌻🌻
Tatar and Mett is very popular in Germany. But it should be bought fresh from the butcher and eaten the same day.
I think we are definately going to need to give this a try! Thanks for the suggestion!
Sushi contains raw fish as well and tastes yummie. No wonder that Tatar and Hack(fleisch) is called "German Sushi". As with Sushi I buy Tatar never in supermarkets but only in places where the sushi is freshly made or I even drive to my late Grandpa's village because there's a butcher who butchers and sells tatar (only) on Fridays so we are sure it's as fresh as can be. We eat it like once every 2-3 months. We buy half a pound and mix in an egg yolk, salt and pepper and finely chopped onions with a fork. On a slice of Mischbrot, voila, German Sushi heaven :-P
in germany i have been eat pork like tatar in restaurant..is similar
@@petex3909to bych nedoporučoval a to jsem kuchař, hovězí maso je na konzumací syrového masa lepší než vepřové. Vyzrálá hovězí svíčková je jistota. Vepřové maso se u nás syrové nekonzumuje
@@hejlik4859 jo ..jasně že hovězí je lepší..jen jsem psal zvyk z německa kde to dělaj i z vepřovýho...nic nám potom nebylo..a hlad je nejlepší kuchař ...a to jednou v londýně jsem si dal bagetu s chicken curry ....a podle mě to kuře bylo taky syrový...ufff
3:45 Beef Tartar is just the first step on the journey that leads to Mettbrötchen. 😊 I'm looking forward to see you trying that, as well. 😎
We will definitely give it a try one of these days. Jonathan is very adventurous with his foods and usually ropes me into trying new things as well. I actually really liked the Beef Tartar, the garlic was VERY yummy!
The 1st time you missed the garlic I was like "noooooooo" .... happy you liked my city (I'm a German in Prague for 13 years now)....
Yes! It was so much better with the garlic. Really tasty.
Thank you so much for watching the video ❤️
on point. Bredovsky Dvur is recommended by many Praguers. I always order the hermelin. Did you rub the garlic on the toast called "topinka?" Cafe Imperial has the best Svichkova in Prague.
poppy seeds are a staple in Central Europe, or pretty much on the Continent. The Makovy was a good choice.
for the Chlebicky-open faced sandwiches, ham or salami are traditional too, but that crab looks pretty good. I would try it next time.
When our daughter was younger, it was a pain to get a stroller around sometimes on the older trams like the 22 line. The key is to start at the Castle and work your way down into old town square and wenceslaus square with a stroller or small kids.
U Fleku is pretty touristy, although a lot of old Praguers have a soft spot for it. It has managed to be reasonable and the gulas is pretty good.
Letna Beer garden is also another hidden gem. Glad you got to visit. Great and very informative!
Oh we will have to give that beer garden a try soon! We go back to Prague in August! thanks for the recommendation.
Thanks for sharing, I've been there twice but never tried the vietnamese food. Also, your child is really adorable :)
Thank you! We highly recommend checking out the Vietnamese culture and restaurants. Very, very authentic and good food. ❤️
We’ve booked a week in October… another dish you missed out was your finger which the baby really enjoyed!
omg seriously i first thought it is BBC / Netflix hosted video that level of presentation interms of mainly anchoring sir and madam and kiddo also most of times, editing, inbtw comical expression points so speechless fabulous, stunning, marvellous, awesome, amazing words not sufficient you guys are next level beyond the peak. Thanks alot for such a unique dedicated content it really impresses every bit of it. i highly recommend
Thumbs up for Bredovsky Dvur and Zlaty Kriz delis, Naplavka and also for the Vietnamese place- they are very popular with locals. Thumbs down for tourist traps on the Old Town Square- prazska sunka (scam- do not recommend at all) and Trdelnik (chimney cake)- hardly any local would go for that. But tourists have fun with it, so why not. Quite iffy about U Fleku choice- a top notch tourist attraction. But guess it has earned its reputation and has a long history of beer brewing and accompanying cuisine. Some Czechs may occasionally venture there, just out of nostalgia and curiosity maybe. Over all a pleasant video, looks like you had fun and enjoyed the trip :).
outside the places where you moved, like most tourists, you should have food about 1/3 cheaper ...
Miss my Country wants to come back from Canada. I’m retired and want live with my family ❤️🇨🇿
Praha U Flecku - I have been there too, when i visited this wonderful city a few years ago.
I love beef tartare. That used to be popular in Germany and could regularly be found in pubs (Kneipen). But the BSE infestation caused it to be removed from most menus. It’s still popular in France though.
@ Rob Williams - you are telling nonsense
i just bought 200grams of beef exactly for that meal/ just mix it up/...in supermarket...price 3 $ ....and we eating with fresh horseradish on top...amazing
I don't understand how can someone eat that, it's raw meat, it's very risky to eat that, I know it's traditional food, but most of traditions are stupid and people repeat that only because they are used to.
@@Pidalin we eat it cousa we love it..cats and dogs eat raw meat also...
@@gerdpapenburg7050 jo to říká, ale tatarák miluju a děláme si ho doma odjakživa a nic se nám nestalo, taky to zapíjíme moravskou slivovicí
After watching, I’m so hungry right now🥺 and I need some beer to😋🍻
so you are thirsty..)) cherr up
Very nice video (BTW-Pilsner is from Plzen-about hour train ride Southwest of Prague. Local beer would be Staropramen).
Interesting to see that no one pointed out that Trdlo, although ubiquitous available, are not traditional Czech. Same as Langos which also origins in Hungary. Svickova and guláš on the other hand are the czech soul food and dumpling the main staple. Good choices of restaurants and beer gardens.
BTW never buy food on one of the stalls in Old Town, especially not the Prague Ham. It's way overpriced as it is sold by weight. There are so many other options around to have a decent meal.
I would like to see your faces when you try Mett! ^^
YES. 😊 With so many suggesting it, we are going to definately give it a try soon. Thanks for the suggestion!
15:20 - look on channel Honest Guide, video named: How they trick tourists with food "by weight"?
Nice review, glad you enjoyed it there. I've only been through there a couple of times on my way to Berlin and Dresden. I had lived in Prague for four months working on a project and am sure there's been a lot of changes since '95. The city at that time was inundated with ex-pats, and as a vegetarian a challenge to find places to eat at, though there was a really good Mexican restaurant there at that time. Likewise, I found that their favorite spice was salt, a nice green spinach dish which was ultra salt was inedible. Budvar was definitely a favorite. Did you have nouc mam with your Vietnamese dinner? LG aus Villach 😎
I love the Kozel black beer. Fresh and tasty! Actually I still order it once in a while trough the internet! Good choice 👍🏻!
Super delicious! Thanks!
Tatarský biftek is actually quite complicated thing. The problem is that some people like to prepare it them self so they expect a plate with raw beef, yolk on top of it and then a variety of spice and onions, garlic and so on around it, there's quite many things that goes to tatarský biftek, and they just slowly mix it to perfection. Now that being said, for most of people that would be complicated to prepare because they don't know what they actually want their tatarský biftek to taste like (and you can easily hide the taste of the beef - the most important and expensive part of it - with overuse of some the spices) so the chef has some prepared mix that is served for "new comers" to tatarský biftek scene. That is usually some average tasting version that does not excite you but also does not offend you. It takes many many tries and years to get the taste you always want your tatarský biftek to taste like.
That's very interesting to hear. We had no idea how it was prepared, but knew the taste was far more than just raw beef. We also would be quite nervous preparing raw beef ourselves, so we will stick with a respected restaurant to handle this. :)
local food is ever the best.
Rather than walk up the many steps to Prague Castle, especially with a pram. Take the #22 tram (every 6 mins) to the stop ‘Pohořelec’ which is above castle. Then you only have to walk down the steps.
Ah this is a really great tip! Thank you!
realy enjoy watching u guys ,live in West germany
Thank you so much! We hope you enjoyed the video as much as we enjoyed making it. All of those extra calories were worth it, Prague has some great food.
That cake is actually Kurtos originally from Hungary, then Romanians got it and then pretty much the whole Europe. Very tasty indeed, we usually get it during winter holidays in Christmas Markets
So delicious!
I never saw it before like 2010 and they call it "traditional" 🙂
Trdelník is about as Czech as chop suey. Tastes quite nice but it's strictly for the tourists so quite expensive.
You missed our soups, we have like 50 different soups. They are the filling kind, so you may even skip main dish and follow with a dessert. Next specific food culture are sweetshops, the tradition of desserts is shared with Austria since the Austro-Hungarian empire we were part of. The meals were prced about double what would happen outside of Prague, so consider visiting other places next time you come.
P.S.: One of those scary trams can get you to the Prague Castle, and their flat floor is just 19cm above rails, so no problem even alone with a stroller.
You're definitely right. It looks like we will need to come back again soon! :)
Wow! It's lovely to see you again here! Love the way you made the video with such careful research and love for travelling. I watched the entire video and loved it. Thank you for visiting our restaurant. Hope to see you soon sometimes ;).
Just lies from this People 🤮🤮🤮🤷
I think you’ll be back to Prague soon 😉 I’m curious to see the vegan/vegetarian food scene there
The vegan / vegetarian scene gained popularity in the last years in Prague.
Best is pork nuckles 💪💪💪💪💪
trdelnik is a really exceptional agricultural product from a given region or place... but not Czech at all.... actually is typically food, with also PGI (Protected Geographical Indication ) for Slovakia (Skalica).... so different state....
Nakládaný hermelín should really be pickled/fermented rather than marinated so if your hermelín was just marinated it's because they did not let it ferment for enough time which usually happens in exposed restaurants. It should be so fermented that the inner part of hermelín which is solid in fresh state is almost liquid like a thick honey and it should also tickle your tongue.
Obsession with everything fermented is what I hate the most about Czech kitchen, I don't understand how can anyone put it into mouth, I am vommiting when I smell fermented food. 😀
@@Pidalin it's actually quite healthy and makes nice tingling sense on your toung..
I like my meat well done... but Czech beef tartar is one of my fav dishes in Prague!
Hi Black Forest Family :)
I couldn't find the information on the blog. Also, the link above is broken. Could you please check? Thanks
Hi Karine, Apologies but we no longer have this blog post up on our website. About six months ago we migrated our website onto a new format and trimmed down the content. But I do need to go back and remove old links like this one from our description. Apologies for the oversight.
Hallo Ashten - mit DEUTSCH kommst du in Prag auch sehr gut zurecht 🤗
So do you know Dinnele/Dinnede/Dünnele (depends on the area) in South Germany it´s really similar to Lagos.
I was in Prague 1st time in the late 80´s (Iron curtain was still there). I eat all Day Duck and Goose omg yummie and cheeeeap (5-7 DM)
Interesting! I just looked up "Dinnele/Dinnede/Dünnele" and it reminds me of Flammkuchen (at least on google photos). Looks tasty and right up my alley for food. Next time we are out and about I will try to look for it. Thanks!
@@TypeAshton yes it is, but the Dough is a little different and the toppings also more diverse
You are 30 years late if your only interest is to eat cheap and good food.
In 1990 you would have got a 5-star menu in Prague for the price of a postage stamp (exaggerated). For one USD tip, the waiter would have closed the restaurant.
I have seen these times of change.
I bet that was quite the experience! We would have loved to see the city during that era and watch its change over time. Although prices have rose, we loved the food to value ratio. Thanks for sharing your experience!
as a czech iam always mad when a western foreigner mentions these times with nostalgia, those were horrible times for people here. Edit : ofcourse not because of the system itself, but its always like that when the regimes changes it takes atleast 30 years before things normalize and people adapt to it and things start to work. So. people were very poor here in the ninties. I was born 99 and things looked horrible , crumbling shadow buildings old public transport vehicles etc... Now its 100 times better than it was back then and wer finaly developed country with the gdp per capita bigger than portugal and about the same as spain.
what does a trip around prague cost
for 4 people
Prague is very affordable in comparison to other EU cities. Excluding hotels (because there's some variation there) - you could eat very well for under 30 euros a day per person (including breakfast and drinks). Beers are around 1 euro. A nice breakfast can be found for 5-7 euros (with coffee) and a full dinner is only around 10-12 euros.
Looks like good place for foodies
It was really so so so good. Highly suggest going there and making a fun food tour out of it. We had so much fun.
@@TypeAshton sure I'll plan.
I think yesterday evening i saw you guys in city center but I don't wanted to bother you.
Happy sunday 👍
@@namastefromgermany Ah really? Next time feel free to come say hello! We're usually out and about on the weekends in Altstadt. Hope you have a great weekend as well!
@@TypeAshton yeah sure
I tried going to your blog to get the list of places you visited, but it gives me an error. I also went to your site, but there is no search feature so I can’t find anything on Prague, just Germany. Can you provide the link to these places you visited?
you sold me Prague
It is such a great city! We can't wait to go back!
Unfortunately, the food you tasted is not a czech traditional and we do not eat raw meat here! Always check your information from real locals and avoid the information from waitresses who might want to sell you what they have available!
👍🇨🇿🍻
I am gald u like my country I was born in
We've been back a couple of times and always love it.
I noticed you had a half portion as a main was this option available in many places in prauge ??
We only specifically asked at the first restaurant if we could split a "normal portion" between the two of us since in many restaurants it is considered faux pas. The waiter seemed more than happy to accommodate this request and acted as if it was totally normal. If you're planning on sharing it with another, I don't see it being a problem. 😊
@@TypeAshton thank you. I have had weight loss surgery so can only eat small portions and I hate comming across rude or I hate there food when I only have a very small portion.
Great video by the way we are going in a couple of weeks. 😀
@@hannahbellxoxo2414 Have a wonderful trip! It can't be overstated how beatiful the city is. I hope you have a great time.
Hi, local here. No trdelnik is not local, it's made for tourists only. No Langos is not czech, its loved by czech but not where you bought it, that place is a major trap for tourists.
That is not "a local Pilsner", that is "THE Pilsner" :)
You are very preety couple and your child!!! Excuse me for my bad English.
Lol... local Pilsner.
1/3 foam is not the correct way to pour a beer. There isn't "a" correct way to pour a beer.
Try Mlíko or Šnyt and you'll see. Lagers are normally poured with 20 or 25% head. That's "Hladinka".
Lol I had a couple of friends come to visit once and I ordered them a mlíko at the local pub. The looks on their faces was priceless
@@firestorm165 😂
Correct way to poor a beer? Nooooo! Only accurate if it is for a slow drinker.
Very possible! We always enjoy learning how other countries/cities think the 'correct' way is.
The food looks delicious, thanks for sharing。

You got swindled, watch honest guide next time
Trdelník is not Czech.
Beers are not cheap.. not for me as a Portuguese.
That's funny because I had half liter of beer in Portugal everywhere for 4-5 eur which is really really expensive. 🙂 They are mostly serving only 0.2 or 0.3L, but when you calculate it for normal half liter, it's really expensive.
@@Pidalin is way cheaper than that here, unless you went to places where tourist normally go.
For instance even portugueses need to be careful in Algarve because of all the English tourists.
Trdelnik is not Czech at all. It is Hungarian and has been sold for the past 10 years or so. It is the least Czech thing in Czechia.
those funnel cakes are not czech
Just tourist traps
Do you have better recommendations? We are planning another trip in August. ❤️
@@TypeAshton please check the Honest Guide videos. Though: besides of falling into the unfortunate tourist trap of trdelník or "Prague ham", you've done a great job, really!
Please also check your "colleague" Jen's videos Dream Prague, before your next trip. (I lived in the Netherlands and in Germany for 20 years and returned to Prague now. Expat views of other countries fascinate me. Thanks for your work!)
Jediná toursit trap v 21 minutovým videu byla trdelník ty klaune :D
What is that tattoo on your left shoulder?
I don't understand why Americans have such a hard time with raw meat. "Everyone" loves sushi but tartar is too much...
You have a solid point. I think for me, the aversion to raw meat (versus raw fish) is mostly due to the processing and media attention that contaminated beef has had in recent memory. But I have to say, I really enjoyed the tartar. ❤️ Cheers from the Black Forest!
As a Czech, I would never put raw meat to my mouth, it's very risky, why risk salmonela or something even worse only because of stupid food? You can just take something safe. Also it's hard to process it in your stomach, you can have pain from that even when you don't catch salmonela, so why eat it? It doesn't make sense to me.
@@TypeAshton it happens even here all the time, especially now when all meat is from Poland, that's why I don't understand why are people willing to risk it
@@Pidalin If you know your local butcher well, you cannot be afraid of something like salmonela. From your comment it seems you don't like meat at all and only find more excuses to do so. It doesn't mean if you dislike it, others have to too. I ate a lot of tartars and no problems at all. It's like sushi, you have to choose your restaurant more carefully.
