This cosy cafe was a favorite spot during my first three months here searching for jobs, waiting for my working visa, and most importantly writing for my blogs. What can beat free WIFI, cheap espresso, decent food, warm atmosphere, friendly staff right in the center of Wencelas Square and Vodickova Street, one of the most expensive and busiest area in Prague. 

I usually ordered either a small espresso, a cup of tea or both and hurried upstairs where there was plenty more space, quiet and less crowded. Normally, I would see patrons working on their laptops or having private language sesson with one another. The majority of Fuzion’s customers were foreigners judged from the languages they spoke.

More Fuzion and its sandwich bar can be found at Czechoutchannel, a blog dedicated to food and drink.

Remember when you were kids and you tended little golden fish in a little tank. Adult Czechs sacrifice their hygiene for a few days to save their half-full bathtub for cute little carbs which will end up on crunchy Christmas dinner plates.

Last Friday, I went out with my roommate and her friends to Na Slamniku,a typical Czech pub/restaurant in Hradcanska [map]. This restaurant is not something you can tumble upon by accident while walking on the street. It is well-hidden from the main street where the metro and trams run.

It’s difficult to understand how such cheap restaurant exist in a luxurious neighborhood lined up with fancy villas, governmental and diplomatic buildings. Even from across from Na Slamniku is Villa Schwaiger housing the chain restaurant Argentina Steak House where a meal cost 500 to 1000 CZK.

At Na Slamniku, for as little as 130 CZK, you can get a super big plate filled of freshly made food. The portion is so big I literally drop my jaw. This huge BBQ ribs and chicken wings dish cost me a mere 145 CZK.

My mother over-taught me eating manner so normally I behave like a nice lady at dinner table. However, in this occasion, despite all eyes on me, I picked the ribs and the wings with my two hands, circling them on the wooden plate to soak the sweet chilly sauce and then dipped them in sweet mustard before adding a little bit of horse radish and onions.

Yum! Yum!

This restaurant cooks very strange combination of meals, for example fish goulash. It also has a small menu of Chinese, Thai and even Tibetan food (I don’t recommend eating Asian food at a Czech restaurant).

Do expect that I will return to this place very soon in the future and update this entry with more juicy and yummy update.
