How about that Czech food?

Our first taste of food in Prague was a bit sad. But it was all uphill after that.

The hotel provided breakfast, a simple buffet of cereals, breads, cold meat, cheeses, salad, creamy yoghurt, tea and coffee.

At the metro station there was the little kiosk and a couple of small restaurants.


Well, the words look tasty.

But just down the road a little way there is a restaurant called Cerreto. We went there every chance we got, because we wanted to taste all of their dishes. Italian food, served by a delightful young waitress with a stunning personality and good English.


Peter tried the scallopini, washed down with a big beer, Czech style.


I had a lasagne that was too big to finish, and the next time we went Peter had a pancetta pizza, and I had my favourite spaghetti bol - the best I've ever had.





Then we discovered the gnocchi part of the menu.



Our favourites were the smoked salmon with spinach gnocchi, and the gorgonzola and chicken with potato gnocchi and walnuts ... mmm mmm!
