Visiting the Czech Republic

[brin]

Now that's an interesting question I go with home food, hotel food is similar but different like everywhere

Breakfast:

tea/coffee, sliced bread with butter/margarine and honey or preserve. Sweet rolls, donuts, sweet bread - similar to hawaiian bread I ate in MI once
Or any combination of above. My family traditionally has toasts with garlic and salt every Saturday morning.
But if you had a hard night, the typical pickup food is tripe soup and beer, LOL at least in my college days it was.


Lunch:

Very Czech - baked pork with dumplings (potatoe or flour) and saukraut

chicken plus potatoes, or breaded cheese fried in oil with fries - very good Or beef and rice with some kind of a sauce to go with it. Vienner schnitzel is an option too with mashed potatoes.
Typical students lunch is slice of meatloaf with mustard and bread. You can buy it in one of those small street eateries.

Dinner:

letki - potatoe pancakes, or soup and bread or leftovers from lunch or any dish from the lunch list. Pizza, cassaroll...


The original quisine is quite heavy, it changes slowly and some families eat more light food and vegetables. Fish is gaining, they eat a lot of carp, especially for Christmas dinner - yuck

Thanks for the menu...It all sounds great to me..and maybe even the Carp..I have never tried Carp, I have heard it has a lot of bones but not about taste. The rest sounds like just great food...I just hope McDonalds and others don't take over the world and ruin all the good homecookin' - Thanks again.
