...that are not a tourist rip-off ideally within a reasonable walking distance of K and K Hotel Fenix. We arrive on Wednesday 14th December for 2 nights We are in our late 50's visiting Prague for the first time and would very much appreciate any advice on 2 different restaurants for different evenings. Please forgive me asking the same old question but restaurants do change not always for the better!! Also I am a dedicated beer drinker (having sold Staropramen in the UK ever since it was introduced - one of the very best beers I have ever tasted!) but my wife is not so keen!! Any advice on dry white wines and what prices to expect would also be greatly appreciated Dekuji and best wishes from the UK
Sorry I don't know where that hotel is but I can tell you there is a good restrurant right off Naměstí miru on Korruní. And I do have to say that almost any wine you get in the Czech republic is fantastic and very reasonably priced.
Hello. I have stayed at the K&k Fenix, and found it to be a lovely hotel. It's very near Vaclavske Nam. If you go down to the square from the hotel and turn right you'll come to the National Museum. There is a pedestrian tunnel under the street. On the other side find Vinohradska Street. At the corner of that street and Balbinova is a place called U Sadlu (it's in the cellar). Very good food, and prices. They sell Budweiser. At the other end of Vaclavske Nam. take Narodni street toward the National Theater. When you come to Mikulandska street turn left. There you will find the Rotisserie. It's a little farther, and a little pricier, but very charming and romantic. They have very good food, and wine, and a table-side brandy service complete with a burner to flambe snifters of slivovice. I have visited both places more than once, and had memorable experiences every time. The wait staff is very helpful and they have menus in English at both restaurants. But don't worry. I've eaten a considerable number of meals in Prague and, while some were better than others, I've never gotten unacceptable food. As long as you stay away from places that just shout out "tourist trap!" you'll likely get great food. About the wine, I haven't tried many Czech white wines, but I have it on good authority that rulandske bile or veltlinske bile are both nice. Hope this helps. BTW I really like Staropramen as well. Try Budweiser and Gambrinus ;-) Zaner
