Restaurant-Check Prague - Part 2
Duck breast with baked mashed potatoes
4.) U Modré
Kachnicky (Blue Duckling)
If you pass by the glamerous Mandarin Oriental Hotel and then turn right, you will read the sign of the restaurant. Despite the really bad look from outside, do not pass by at this restaurant - be man enough to open the door! One of Prague's finest restaurants will await you behind the door. We had some great duck breast which was flambé in front of us, as a side dish we chose baked mashed potatoes, which were quite excellent. The dessert was expensive as hell - 8 Euros for a Blackforest Cake - to be honest -
fu
lly worth each Penny.
Starters from 8-19 euros, main courses from 16-30 Euros.
Duck breast "flamé en salle"
5.) La Bottega di Finestra
Last but not least my top favourite place for a fast and convenient dinner or late lunch. This casual atmosphere is perfect in my opinion. You can not only have a great meal there - no, you can also buy the best italian products in the whole Czech Republic. The prices? Not bad, I would say. When I was there the last time I paid about 500 CZK for Beef tartar, Lasagne and a housemade lime lemonade - which I highly recommend to try - there is a choice between Lime, Orange, Melon, Grapefruit and some berries.
Starters from 5-8 euros, main courses from 10-22 Euros.
