Week 12, Post 1: Prague Munchin'

The last day Kristen and I were in Prague was very good, food wise. We woke up a little late to grab the hotels breakfast, so we headed out to the town to try and find some breakfast. You wouldn't believe how difficult it is to find a decent breakfast in Prague, for some reason I don't think they value their breakfasts as much as I do. After a good tram ride, we near a street that had a good amount of restaurants on it. We skimmed the menu of all the restaurants up and down the street trying to decide what we wanted. We found a place that had about 4 breakfast items and decided to go in. After ordering tap water but receiving bottled water, we found out that they don't serve breakfast after 11. Psh. So I skimmed the menu looking for something else I might like but I really didn't find anything. As horrible as it was, we decided to get the check for our waters and go to a restaurant down the street. The restaurant down the street was the jackpot let me tell ya! I ordered a hot tea, and a salmon and shrimp pasta, it was delicious. They also brought out some bread to hold is over until the food came. I love that. The whole meal was just so delicious and very inexpensive, like $9 for a fine dining experience! After breakfast/lunch we walked around for a while until we were about to freeze, then we walked into a nice cafe. I don't know how a person can hit the jackpot twice, but we did. At first the cafe was so crowded we could barely walk, we didn't think we would find a seat but we decided to push our luck and order hoping there would be a table open by the time we were done. The cafe had loads of cakes and pastries, along with teas and coffees. I ordered a tea and some cheesecake, then went to find a place to sit. We found a nice little table in the back room that was very cosy. It was almost better than the front room because people weren't smoking in the back. When the lady came to bring our cakes and tea, I was ready to dig it. I prepared my tea making it just the right color while leaving a little room for milk at the top, then as I waited for it to cool I dug into my cheesecake. It was a delicious cheesecake with some type of whipped cream layer on top. It almost had the taste of key lime pie but very slight. I tried not to eat all my cheesecake before I had my first sip of the tea. After I tried my tea, I noticed there was some honey, so I poured it in my tea trying to expand my tea horizons. To my surprise it wasn't too sweet from the honey, it was almost just enough to make the tea a little more enjoyable. We sat at the cafe for a good hour probably just enjoying the tea, the wifi, and each other's company. Then we headed off to explore more of Prague.
