Ohhh, Prague! I want to go to Prague. I plan to duck out of the way of imaginary Johans lurking behind every street corner. Was the food good?

Not so much. Prague food tends towards starchy stodge, dumplings like loaves of bread. Honestly, I'll take German or English style stodge over Czech. The best places to eat are cafés and pizza places and even the odd ex-pat breakfast place.

The honey and walnut cake thing is nice, though, and there are some very nice little cafés and pizza places, just avoid the ones selling traditional food.

Potato pancakes! Food of the gods!
