While traditional Czech food might not be best described as healthy, this hearty fare is tasty and still extremely popular despite new trends in healthier cuisine. Once you’ve sunk your teeth into succulent roast pork with dumplings and sauerkraut, or sampled the fruit filled dumplings, this rich cuisine will win you over.

In Prague today, one can find a myriad of modern offerings from Asian to Mexican, French and fusion and everything in between. Vegetarians might have more difficulty in finding dishes in traditional restaurants, as it is meat-centred. Prague boasts excellent cafes for light refreshment serving coffee and pastries or even brasserie style fare.
