Michal from Prague

About me I am a chemist (PhD, DSc, etc.), semi-retired, trying to make it as a photographer. Born in Prague, with about 20 years in US, I'm now back in Prague almost full time.

U Skřetů Prague

Restaurant with authentic Halusky

"In "U Skřetů" in Prague you can have authentic Slovak Halušky are perfect beer accompaniments, and in this cellar you can also have great Slovak beer!"

If you are not planning to visit Slovakia during your traveling through Europe, you may at least taste something typical Slovak - Halušky s bryndzou. Restaurant "U Skřetů" can be easily missed when you walk by it, but once you locate the entrance (on the picture above it is the small door on the left) and brave the steep spiral staircase down to the cellar, you will have a chance to dine as if you were in Bratislava in Slovakia. Halušky are perfectly accompanied by beer and here again you will have a choice of beer produced in Slovakia. And you will see that, even though Slovakia is better known for its wine, they can make a decent beer as well.

One curiosity about this restaurant is also the fact that you can ask for the menu in Esperanto, and if you are lucky you can meet also some people speaking that language, since the local Esperanto club is sometimes meeting right here.
