THINGS OUR TOP PICKS OF THINGS TO DO this month

METALLICA

MONDAY, APRIL 2, 19:30 Hard rock royalty passes through town on Easter Monday as Lars, James and the boys come to rock O2 Arena. The band was formed in 1981, meaning they've been together longer than som of their fans have been alive But with hits like "Wherever I May Roam", "Enter Sandman" and "Master of Puppets", the band's fast tempos, instrumentals and aggressive musicianship made them one of the founding "big four" bands of thrash metal, alongside Megadeth, Anthrax and Slayer. Certainly a show worth seeing if you're looking for some head-banging on Easter Monday. O2 Arena Českomoravská 17

WALK OFF THE EARTH

TUEsday, APRIL 10, 19:00 Chances are you've seen one of WOTE's videos online - from their first hit covering Goyte's "Somebody That I Used To Know" with all five members playing one guitar, to "Hello" covered on tubes and rubber bands. We've been big fans from the start - and the Canadian band's live show is just as much fun as their videos. Lucerna Music Bar Vodičkova 36

ThE Wombats

Friday, April 13, 19:00 It's been a decade since Scouse indie rock band The Wombats released their debut album. They're touring in support of their fourth album ‘Beautiful People Will Ruin Your Life’. Lucerna Music Bar Vodičkova 36 APRIL 2018 | THE PRAGUE VISITOR

How to become Czech in one hour Tuesday, April 10 & 24, 20:00

Keen to learn something about the Czechs…but too afraid to ask? The Royal Theatre presents an original One Man Show starring Tomáš Vaňek.What’s ‘řízek’, how and why do people drink beer, what’s going on with that sandal and sock combo and who exactly is Karel Gott? French native Jean Christophe Gramont, the man behind in the play, didn’t know either when he first arrived here 14 years ago. Now he’s decided to write a play about his journey towards becoming a Czech. For tickets, visit GoOut.cz Royal Theatre Vinohradská 48

Notable songs include "Thunder", "Believer", "Whatever it takes" and "RadioActive". O2 Arena Českomoravská 17

DJ Krush

Wednesday, April 18, 21:00 A Japanese producer, famous for his characteristic and inimitable style blending hip hop, atmospheric sounds, exotic instruments and jazz samples. He has been regarded as ambient, trip hop, some combination of the two, and hip hop. Krush's story is almost as good as his music, having been born in Tokyo in 1962 and dropping out of school at an early age to join a local gang and, a few years later, the yakuza. Krush left the criminal world for the turntables and hasn't looked back, evolving from the popular Japenese breakdancing scene of the early 1980s. Lucerna Music Bar Vodičkova 36

K THE TWO BROTHERS I N D I A N R E S TA U R A N T “Great find from all the tourist chaos ” - Tripadvisor Review

“Our restaurant descends from an era when celebration of life, culture, luxury, open mindedness, hospitality and happiness all put together were a must. We the two brothers at K have designed the décor of the restaurant in the spirit of what Kapurthala , a European holiday retreat could have looked like. K’s modernity is expressed through its ambience, music and fashionable spirit.”

Royal Theatre's new comedy will teach you how to dress, talk and drink like a true Czech in just sixty minutes!

By Deb Frank Whether you’re visiting or living in Prague, chances are you’re probably making a genuine effort to blend in with the locals. Even beyond the language, many people pick up on some of the quirky nuances associated with being distinctly Czech. A new comedy at the historic Royal Theatre highlights a few of these differences with humour, music and of course – in true Czech fashion, alcohol. Writer and director Jean Christophe Gramont is responsible for the play. As a French man married to a Czech woman living in Prague for 15 years, Gramont said from the second he arrived, it was clear that the Czech people were unique. “I traveled the entire world,” Gramont said. “But after one short week in Prague I realized how different the French and the Czech people are. Most visitors discover the architecture of Prague,” Gramont explained. “But visitors never get the chance to understand who the Czech people really are.” “I had an idea to write a book about being Czech, but then I saw a show in Paris a few years

back that describes a Parisian,” Gramont said. “That’s when I decided to write the show, How to be Czech in One Hour.” A comic indulgence into what most expats and visitors find as some of the Czech people’s strangest quirks, habits, and expectations, the one-man play takes the audience through some of the most humorous aspects of the Czech lifestyle. The best part? All of this is done interactively – rewarding enthusiastic learners in the audience with great prizes and laughs. Normally a mixed audience filled with Czechs, long-time foreign residents, and tourists, it’s easy to relate to all of the experiences Gramont brings to light in what many say is an extremely accurate guide to local adaption. Gramont thinks that in addition to this, audience members will leave feeling like any and all misconceptions they had about the Czech people have been cleared up. “The Czech people are genuine. They don’t use filters or paraphrase like the French, the British or the Americans. When Czech people don’t like

something, you’ll know immediately: they don’t have to say anything, you’ll just know by looking at their face.” Gramont explains. Gramont knew the play’s success hinged on choosing the right performer. That meant finding someone who could handle the fast-paced, occasionally musical and sometimes improvised aspects of the whirlwind show. Native Czech Tomáš Vaňek has been acting and singing since he was a child. With his animated mannerisms, great singing voice and charming personality, Gramont knew he’d be a great fit for the show. “I thought it would be original to have a standup comedian who was also a great singer.” Gramont said. “Tomas is full of energy and communicates it to the audience at every show.” “We had an idea to put on a show together, but after we got to know each other, Gramont asked if I’d be in his play about the Czech people,” Vaňek said. “It’s hard to be a representative for an entire group of people, but I have fun meeting the audience every time. It never gets old.” When asked for an example of something APRIL 2018 | THE PRAGUE VISITOR

Czech garnet…. red as blood, full of secrets, passions and magic. Did you know that the Czech garnet is, among other garnets mined in many locations in the world, as unique as the Colombian emeralds or the Burmese rubies? Garnets also have many legends. For centuries they have been considered as a stone of pilgrims and travelers who wore them as a talisman. According to legend, Noah had a lamp made of a garnet on his ark, which helped him navigate the ship in the evening darkness. It was rumored that glowing night garnets would protect their wearer from evil. In the Middle Ages, the Knights used the garnets not only for decoration, but also for their protective power from injuries, as it gave the warriors a sense of immortality. Another legend claims that tiny crystals of red garnets are fossilized drops of blood of the gods. Garnets symbolize fire, blood, and the heart, making it a favorite gift for wedding anniversaries or romantic gestures. Let yourself be inspired by the beauty of the Czech garnet, get to know its power and strength…. Today, Granát Turnov is the largest producer of jewelry made with unique Czech garnets., including the Czech garnet. It was created by the unification of smaller private companies of goldsmith tradesmen in 1953. In order to ensure the production of jewellery, Granát Turnov obtained an exclusive license to extract Czech garnets and became the owner of the mines which extract the raw garnet material. The original Czech garnet jewellery, made by the traditional manufacturer Granát, d.u.v. Turnov, is seen as one of the symbols of the Czech Republic. It is not only popular in our country, but sought after by foreign tourists, who take it as an exceptional souvenir.

There’s only one true Czech Garnet...Granát Turnov The cooperative is the owner of the trademark and of origin "Czech Garnet" and "Czech Garnet Jewellery". The Garnet team is registered with the hallmark and guarantees the authenticity of the precious metals and stones used. Each Ceramic Garnet comes with a Certificate of Gems and, together with the G-brand Gemstone, guarantees stone foundations and jewellery. Today's collection features a plethora of classical models that have been expanded over the last few years to modern jewellery design. This combination of Czech garnet and moldavin is very popular and this collection includes men's jewellery, children’s jewellery and also symbolic jewellery, such as crosses, hearts, stars, moon signs, letters and animals. We also offer a collection of ladies silver watches, gift items, glass and jewellery, all made from Czech garnet.

stereotypically Czech that’s highlighted in the show, Vaňek is quick to point out Czech people’s fashion, with one aspect in particular: Czech men and their socks with sandals. Vaňek explains that this stereotype is simply part of the Czech culture that foreigners don’t understand. “The Czech people do what they want, and that’s sometimes a surprise for people coming here from other places.” Vaňek said. “The socks and sandals stereotype is an older one you don’t see as much anymore, but it’s definitely still around for many Czech men.” This is far from the only topic covered in this one hour performance, which can feel like a very animated motivational speaking lecture. “The show is almost like a lecture, but a far more fun version,” Vaňek said. “We cover many different topics: how to speak like a Czech person, how to dance like a Czech person, how to speak Czech… and even though it’s funny, I think people can learn a lot.” When asked about why Vaňek loves performing this particular show so much, he explained it simply. “Every show I put on, I feel like I am getting a chance to travel the world. I meet people from all over.” Typically, tourists in Prague are constantly surrounded by other tourists, and their encounters with Czech people are only with those that are constantly dealing with visitors. “Many will never experience the true Czech people during their time in Prague.” Vaňek explained. “One of the main goals of this show was to give people an opportunity to get out of Old Towne Square and see a show that different from anything you could see anywhere else.”

And for Gramont, this is more than just a performance in a beautiful theater. In addition to writing and directing the play, he also owns the Royal Theatre. “One of my dreams was to own a cinema and I made this dream come true when I took the Royal Theatre over in 2014.” It’s easy to see why Gramont is passionate about the Royal. Founded in 1929 and then known to be one of the largest and most modern cinemas in Prague, the Royal Theatre and Club Chic is a look into Czechoslovakia’s most iconic time, the First Republic era. Much of the theater’s original furnishings and architecture still remain, and original woodwork from the 1920’s line the balconies and walls. The theatre still remains relevant, with Elle magazine "How to Become Czech in One recently ranking the theatre’s bar Hour" is the brainchild of as one of the top six in the Czech Jean Christophe Gramont, pictured here with his wife Republic. Veronika. But you don’t even have to wait to get to the bar to start drinking. Upon entrance, attendees of the play are indoctrinated into their newly found Czech-ness with a shot of Becherovka, the traditional The show begins with MC Luke Ryan, an herbal liqueur (who is also one of the show’s expat from Ireland who doubles as a stand-up sponsors). comedian. Ryan softens the crowd with a 10 Upon entrance to the theater, audience minute monologue explaining a little about his members will walk through an exhibit of all things Czech. The exhibition serves as an introduction to experiences with the Czech people. Vaňek says the play is opportunity for us to the topics that will be covered throughout the show. celebrate our differences, poking fun at many nationalities, not just Czech people. “I think there is a benefit to being able to laugh at ourselves,” Vaňek said. “And for tourists here for the weekend or a short period of time, they will take great information away about the Czechs. More than any guide would be able to give them.”

The Royal Theatre is located at Vinohradská 48, Praha 2. Perfomances this month are on April 10 and 24 and tickets are available online. In addition to “How to be Czech in One Hour”, the theatre is home to many other great shows, including Prague Burlesque and The Roosters Mens Caberet. TIckets for all can be purchased online at www.leroyal.cz. Actor Tomas Vaňek takes the audience on a whirlwind tour of how to become Czech.

Café OF THE MONTH

Amorino Spring is back, and that means gelato. Just down the hill from Prague Castle sits Amorino, where you will come for the gelato but you're sure to stay for the coffee, desserts and friendly atmosphere. Their gelato is of the high-quality made with all natural high ingredients without artificial flavors or colors. Besides traditional gelato flavors including a rotating monthly flavor, they also offer select organic and vegan sorbet options. But this is not just a place to visit in the heat of summer, they are also a cafe with

COCKTAIL BAR GUIDE The best cocktail bars in Prague (like the ones listed here) get pretty busy, even during the week. It's always good to make a reservation just to make sure you get a seat (even at the bar).

Tretter's

V kolkovne 3, Praha 1

www.tretters.cz

The Tretter family has been in the bar business for more than 90 years. So it’s no wonder this place feels like walking into a 1930’s Paris or New York cocktail bar. With soft lighting, classic decor and bartenders dressed the part in vintage cocktail jackets, the bar has become an institution. Number 82 on the map. +420 224 811 165 for Reservations

Parlour Krakovská 15, Praha 1 www.parlour.cz Maybe Parlour doesn’t want to be found – and that’s fine with us. The tiny little bar at the top of Wenceslas Square near the National Museum has a delightful speakeasy vibe to it, though it’s quickly becoming a popular secret. If you should luck out and discover the nearly unmarked entry, inside you’ll find an intimate, dimly lit bar with old jazz and R&B records playing and amazing craft cocktails served in antique glassware. Number 84 on the map. +420 777 200 015 for Reservations. L'Fleur V Kolkovně 920/5, 1, Praha www.lfleur.cz L’Fleur is just a few doors down from Tretter’s. Even before our first drink, we fell in love with 1920’s feel of the interior, complete with a Muchainspired stained glass window towards the back of the bar. The signature drinks all come with their own history, which your bartender is always happy to explain. If you’re feeling a bit more bubbly, try a selection from L’Fleur’s expansive champagne list. Number 94 on the map. +420 734 255 665 for Reservations Anonymous Bar Michalská 12, Praha 1 www.anonymousbar.cz It’s nearly impossible to go into the AnonymouS

Bar and not smile. The bar is clever at every turn. You can tell the bartender your likes and they’ll make suggestions, or choose from the secret drink menu printed in UV ink and read with a small blacklight. Reservations are taken only until 9pm. Number 93 on the map. +420 608 280 069 for Reservations.

Le Valmont

Uhelný trh 414/9, Praha 1

www.levalmont.cz The Michael Van Cleef Ault concept was inspired by the Milos Forman movie of the same name, and is decorated in 18th-century French fashion with aubusson carpets, antique sofas, and massive crystal chandeliers. Reservations are all but required, since the 100-capacity lounge fills up fairly quickly. Number 90 on the map. +420 224 267 266 for Reservations.

Black Angel's Staroměstské nám. 29, Praha 1

www.blackangels.cz Nestled in a cozy cellar just across from the Old Town astronomical clock, Black Angel’s will put you in sensory overload. With high cellar ceilings, chandeliers, and ornate decor, it’s a lot to take in. +420 224 213 807 for Reservations.

Bar and Books

Manesova 64, Praha 2

and Týnská 19, Praha 1 Bar & Books is the first overseas extension of the famous New York family of bars, with two locations in Prague (the more casual in Manisova and slightly more formal in Týnská). The bar evokes the feeling of a gentleman’s library. Dim lighting, heavy woods, ornately framed paintings, and of course books (though mostly for visual aesthetics). Number 85 and 86 on the map.

Bonvivant's CTC Bartolomějská 305, P1

Bonvivant's CTC isn’t huge, but it’s cozy and has a cool 1950’s feel with mid-century wood furnishings, a pressed tin ceiling and a checkered floor. Bartenders are a virtual encyclopedia of drink possibilities and suggestions based on your tastes. +420 775 331 862 for Reservations.

Bugsy's

Pařížská 1068/10, Praha 1 www.bugsysbar.cz Bugsy’s is another bar with a great history, popping up just after the Velvet Revolution. Their one constant has been their attention to detail and passion for good cocktails. Bugsy’s also loves their bubbly, and boasts over 130 brands in stock, as well as over 90 single malt whiskeys and 100 types of rum. Number 95 on the map. +420 224 810 287 For Reservations.

Hemingway's

Karolíny Světlé 26, Praha 1 www.hemingwaybar.cz Chances are, if you’ve asked around, you’ve already been recommended to Hemingway’s Bar. The Old Town hotspot just made the “World’s Top 50 Bars” for the third time, and with good reason. The bar’s philosophy is that every customer must have a seat, so you won’t feel overcrowded here. So reservations are recommended. Number 97 on the map. +420 773 974 764 for Reservations.

Cash Only Bar Liliova 3, Prague 1 www.cashonlybar.cz Just around the corner from its older sibling Hemingway’s, this little gem is making its own name with cocktails like Pin-Up Martini, made with passion fruit, vanilla and champagne. It’s an intimate bar, and they don’t take reservations. There’s also no smoking and, you guessed it—the bar doesn’t take credit cards. Oh, and by the way, they do serve amazing hot dogs. Number 89 on the map. No Reservations. Crazy Daisy Václavské nám. 4, Praha 1

www.crazydaisy.cz Somewhat hidden at the bottom of Wenceslas Square, this one of our favourite new hotspots. First republic style interior, bar staff dressed the part and videomapping on the walls that pushes reality - it feels like you're in The Great Gatsby. !Number 99 on the map. +420 273 130 486 for Reservations.

Oblaca Žižkov Television Tower, Praha 3 www.oblaca.cz

High atop the Žižkov Television Tower, Oblaca is making better cocktails through science. Oblaca’s Aleš J. Števlík, genius mixologist gone mad scientist (maybe that explains the drink served in a test tube). 92 on the map. + 420 210 320 086

La Bodeguita del Medio Kaprova 19/5, Praha 1

www.labodeguitadelmedio.cz With it's colonial-style interior straight from Old Havana, La Bodeguita is on point. In addition to great food, bar staff have perfected their craft with regional drinks, from the Cuba Libre to the Mojito. . Number 97 on the map. +420 224 813 922 for Reservations.

Alchemist Bar Provaznická 1, Praha 1

www.thealchemistbar.cz A relative newcomer on the scene, Achemist is turning out quality prohibition style drinks in their ornate classicly decorated location at the bottom of Wenclases Square. Number 98 on the map. +420 251 510 940 for Reservations.

California Republic

Belgická 275/24, Praha 2-Vinohrady www.california-republic.cz

The California Republic Bar is a splash of Californian spirit in the center of Prague. Stand up Comedy night every Second Sunday of the month. Karaoke every Monday night. Find it on our map at Number 96.

Woodhouse

Vinohradská 32 www.wood-house.cz Signature cocktails meets a variey of bespoke sishas. The atmosphere is crafted to calm you; the smell of fresh wood, a wooden house surrounded by trees, a heated shining sun. Woodhouse is a great place to spend an evening with friends or make new ones. Find them on the map at Number 88.

CLUB GUIDE Roxy Dlouhá 33, Prague 1

The Roxy is one of Prague’s oldest and bestknown clubs. The venue was a popular theatre and ballroom in the 1920’s, but now you’ll find drum and bass, house, techno, and other modern styles on the dancefloor. When the club isn’t hosting a live DJ, it’s the spot for concerts and music festivals.

Lucerna

Vodičkova 36

One of the largest and most popular music clubs in Prague, Lucerna is known for its weekly concerts and events. But it’s maybe most popular on Friday and Saturday nights, when the club’s huge projection screens come alive with 80’s and 90’s music videos. Partygoers of every age and all walks of life can be seen here, getting down to oldie hits from Blondie to Nirvana. Number 66 on the map.

Cross Club

Plynární 23, Prague 7 www.crossclub.cz

Cross Club is a labyrinth of small bars and dancefloors pumping music from dubstep and techno to reggae. The club’s psychedelic, industrial décor is a sight to see in itself—every piece of the building, from the walls to the ceiling, is constructed to move and pulsate with the music. It’s one of the most unique experiences you’ll have with nightlife in Praha, but you might want to grab an Uber. Cross Club is a bit out of the city’s center, but worth the trek. Number 67 on the map.

Meet Factory

Ke Sklárně 3213/15 www.meetfactory.cz

This music club, art gallery, theater and cinema is the brainchild of David Černý, the artist responsible for some of Prague’s most famous (and controversial) modern art. A refurbished warehouse stuffed between a motorway and railroad tracks in Smíchov, Meet Factory transforms by night into a hip bar and music venue, where

you’ll find local singers and international tours alike. Number 68 on the map.

M1 Lounge Masná 1, Prague 1 www.m1lounge.com

M1 Lounge is a favorite of locals, expats and even passing-through celebrities, and it’s not hard to see why. The club’s well-known team of skilled DJs keep the place pumping with a mixture of R&B, hip-hop, electro and dance music until the wee hours of morning, and the upscale, luxurious atmosphere makes every night feel like a celebration. Number 69 on the map.

James Dean V kolkovně 922/1 www.jamesdean.cz/

Okay, we admit that this one’s kind of kitschy— but only in the best way. Named for the iconic rebel and actor, the bar has a classic 1950’s American diner feel turned nightclub late night. Number 70 on the map.

NEONE

Bubenská 1 www.lunchmeat.cz/

Neone got its start as a pop-up party, but it’s since grown into a well-established and respected club in Prague’s electronic music scene known for their superior sound system and live gigs. Electronic music fans, this is the spot where the latest trends in the industry meet innovative artists and dedicated fans. Number 72 on the map.

Radost FX radostfx.cz

Bělehradská 120, Prague 2

First opened in the early ‘90s just a few years after the Velvet Revolution, Radost FX is open Thursday to Saturday and offers the best of house, R&B and hip hop music—Rihanna even filmed one of her music videos there. Above the club is the venue’s restaurant and cafe, well-

known as one of the best brunch spots in all of Prague. Number 73 on the map.

Retro

Francouzská 75/4, Prague 2 www.retropraha.cz

One for the curious bored or brave. Retro has become the Czech home of hard house. Their club nights are full to the rafters until the small hours while go-go dancers whip the energetic clubbers into a house driven frenzy. A very friendly atmosphere with smiling faces and sweating brows as far as the eye can see, there are more locals and fewer tourists here than some of the other large clubs with amazing DJ’s, lasers, and vibes. Dress code is free and easy, flamboyant if you’re feeling daring. Number 75 on the map.

Chapeau Rouge

Jakubska 2, Old Town www.chapeaurouge.cz

Chapeau Rouge is a music clubs that ranks among the biggest in Prague with 3 floors, 4 bars & 3 stages. Chapeau truly has something for everyone! You may even stumble upon it all on your own: it’s in the center right behind Old Town Square The ground floor of Chapeau is a chill place to meet people from all over the world: travelers and expats alike. Number 77 on the map.

U Sudů

Vodičkova 10, Prague 1 www.usudu.cz

U Sudu is the best of both worlds with a wine bar upstairs and an underground, cave-like labyrinth downstairs. When you walk in, don’t stop on the top level. All that is up here is a normal looking bar. Keep walking until you hit the stairs that descend into one of the coolest places to drink on Earth... It is indeed smoky, but get past that and the place is just mythic. Number 78 on the map.

Harley's

Dlouhá 18, 110 00 , Prague 1

Harleys is described as the coolest hell on earth. This American-style biker bar opens late and is always rockin’ and rollin’ with live DJs and music acts. It’s also in a perfect location, just a twominute walk from Old Town Square. Number 79 on the map.

La Loca

Odborů 278/4, Prague 2

Chic, fashionable and a whole lotta fun! One of the very first smoke-free establishments in Prague entertains the crowds all day every day. The night is the time when true party colours of La Loca show. International vibes mixed with a scrumptious selection of sizzling drinks are a guarantee of a big night-out. Add a carefully selected music program - karaoke, 80s & 90s retro parties, DJ performances, live concerts and rooftop gatherings in the summer - and you can rest assured knowing you'll very likely to create memories to remember for a lifetime.

Café 80's V Kolkovně 909/6

You can't go wrong with 80's music. Whether you're nostaligic or just appreciative of all things "totally awesome", the two-story venue does features an 80's themed café restaurant on the first floor. But, the real story here is the basement. A nicely sized music club with an illuminated dance floor, plus a large bar and VIP lounge make it a night worthy of the MTV generation. Number 80 on the map.

Klub Joe's (Limonádový Joe) Revoluční 655/1

Named "Lemonade Joe's" after a popular Czech film, Klub Joe's is one of Prague's oldest clubs. Recently reconstructed, it looks amazing for it's 24 years. The highlight for us is the retractable roof for drinks under the stars. Number 76 .

BIG FUN AND RELAX!


.

First let people off, before you get on. If someone elderly gets on, give up your seat. It’s not just curtious, it’s expected here. To fit in on the metro and trams wear your headphones. If you don’t have headphones, then play with your phone instead, or read a book or this magazine. If you’ve been drinking, don’t act like an idiot, even with friends.

Public Transport Tips:

Tram and Metro Map Late Night: After midnight, trams switch to “Night Service”, which includes a whole new schedule that can be a bit confusing - especially if you’ve had a few drinks. Our recommendation - call an Uber or Liftago or use a taxi to get to your destination.

We just wanted to build a cool bar. What we found was unexplainable, and completely terrifying. Introducing Prague’s most haunted bar and fear house.

We are the first fear house in Central Europe. Do you like horror stories and adrenalin? We are here for you. This scary tour of our underground space of more than 500 m2 will give you an unforgettable experience full of suspense. Come alone or with your friends or colleagues. The Fear House also has a horror bar where you can enjoy frighteningly good signature drinks, burgers, wings and more.

“This is by far the best burger I have ever had, anywhere in the world. I can't even explain how good the burger was (ironically the server made a bit of fun of me because I ordered the plain old "craft burger" instead of one of their specialty burgers, but it was awesome!). They also have some very good beers to choose from. - Brian H from Chicago, TripAdvisor Review 

THE PRAGUE VISITOR | March 2018


PRAGUE in under

1000 calories

By Nicki Schedler

Ugo: With a wide variety of fresh juices, salads, smoothies and snacks Ugo is the perfect place for healthy eating on-the-go. Choose a fresh fruit or mix of fruit and vegetable juice while admiring the premade wraps and salads on display. There is also a seasonal menu of juices and wraps as well as a rotating soup of the day. Find them at various locations around Prague or online at www.ugo.cz

Traveling abroad often means splurging on calories as you walk around big beautiful cities, and Prague is no exception. But when it comes to healthier options in the city of 100 spires, the task of finding where to go if you are vegetarian, vegan or simply enjoy leading a healthy lifestyle can be daunting. We here at the Visitor love a good pork knuckle but can enjoy some vegan risotto too. So we compiled some places for a quick bite, a sit down or a stroll through the isle that will fill you up on the healthy side. Paprika

Dine and Dash! Exploring all that Prague has to offer can sometimes leave little time for a full-on sit down meal. The city has plenty of street-food options to choose from, but why risk the food poisoning when you could grab a quick and healthy meal for the same price as the stand in Wenceslas Square? From food courts to hidden Mediterranean bistro’s, there are plenty of places that combine health with delicious food. Quadrio: Just behind the famous rotating Franz Kafka head statue is anything other than an ordinary food court. The dining experience at the Quadrio shopping center lets visitors travel the globe, with 13 distinct restaurants and cafes to choose from: Vapiano Pizza and Pasta, Cafe Level, Costa Coffee, Bombay Express, Fruitisimo, Kavarna Creperie, McDonalds, McCafe, Polpo by Kogo, Sushi Time, DelMart, Loving Hut and SpicyMama. If you are interested in international cuisine, try the pad thai at asian fusion restauran Spicy Mama or the authentic Indian food at Bombay Express. Give DelMart a try for custom-made healthy meals such as sandwiches, burgers and salads. Freshen up your day of shopping with a pressed juice or healthy snack from Fruitisimo. Finally, conclude your day with a pizza from Vapiano’s that is sure to delight. No matter what your taste-buds desire they are sure to find something unique and delicious at Quadrio. Find them at Spálená 2121/22, 110 00 Nové Město or online at www.quadrio.cz

Paprika: A block from the IP Pavlova tram and metro station is some seriously authentic Mediterranean food straight out of Israel. Squeeze into this cozy bistro and build your own meal with a variety of toppings to choose from. Stuff a pita pocket, laffa wrap or tortilla with choices like falafel or chicken shawarma and top it with their pre-selected combinations. Or order a hummus plate and and add toppings like tahini sauce, olive oil and lemon zest. Bonus: you can add french fries to anything on the menu, and you will want to add them! Find them at Rumunská 8/16, 120 00 Vinohrady or online on Facebook. VeggGo

Grils

Bonus tips: Czechs love yogurt so be sure to stop into a local grocery store for a wide variety of fresh local goodness thta will blow your mind. The word bio means organic in Czech, so look for that word on food labels and at restaurants. There's no GMO (genetically modified organisms) in food made the Czech Republic, aside from with some corn. Our resident American has tried to tell us that makes KFC healthier. You decide. The Czech Republic has a suprising number of vegetarian options compared to even a decade ago, when Celebrity Chef Zdenek Pohlreich tells us that the vegetarian options on a menu was limited to fried cheese.

„My grandma used to wear hats, my mom wear hats, I wear hats, both of my daughters wear hats and now even my granddaughters do. Back in the 1950′s a hat was considered too bourgeois and so my grandma couldn’t wear it. And so she went around bareheaded and used to say: ‚They won’t make me wear a headscarf!‘ That’s what we´ve been saying in our family ever since. I don’t have hair at the moment because since the last year I´ve been undergoing a chemotherapy treatment and so all of my fifty hats 42

are too big for me now. I borrowed this one from my daughter. It wouldn’t be the same without a hat. When I wear it, I can feel that I should follow the motto ‚noblesse oblige’, nobility obligates. But since I was teaching at school for all my life, since I am a teacher with all my body and soul, I never behave in a bad way anyway – my students would hopefully confirm that. I used to teach at a technical high school. Almost all the students were boys but they never dared to say swear words in my presence. It’s simply

not possible infront of me. When I had to leave the school because of my health last year, it was hard. But students gave me all kinds of farewell gifts – rocks and sea shells, a troll or tea that was supposed to make me healthy. Everybody felt for me. And my last graduation class was really great. When they had the prom, they gave me a big box with a really nice grey hat in it. I told them: ‚That’s beautiful, I don’t have one like that!’“
