This past weekend, my girlfriend and I took on Prague, and its safe to say we were the number one "travelers" there. Upon our arrival, we instantly went to Bake Shop after hearing delicious reviews, and it nonetheless became our weekend spot. Next on the list, we headed towards Old Town Square, which was evidently the center of everything and it was conveniently located right near our hotel- The Grand Bohemia. It was fascinating to admire the medieval architecture that truly resembled a fantasy world. We then made our way to the Charles Bridge & John Lennon Wall, but because it was near sunset we decided to make our way there again in broad daylight the following morning. At around happy hour time, we sat at a cafe known as Follow Me, where we were shocked at how generous the glasses of wine were. Nearly two put us over edge, but we still had an appetite for James Dean, a diner where the waitresses are dressed up in character.
Day 2, we again stopped at Bake Shop and made our way to the Jewish Quarter. Although we were able to walk around this area, no tours were available on Saturday due to Shabbat. If you plan on traveling to Prague, I would highly recommend visiting this sight Friday before Shabbat. Next, the street meat located in Old Town Square became Mel's personal favorite. We spent a portion of our afternoon indulging in some of Prague's known specialities including the Sausage, Hot Chocolate, Hot Wine & Sweet Bread. Feeling like it was time to burn a few calories off, we hiked up top to the Prague castle, which overlooked the entire city. This view was magnificent & I must admit the trek was worth it. Even better, we stopped at McDonald's on the way down for the notorious fried cheese, which is as good as they say. We also made our way towards New Town, which had more of a city-like feel & was definitely cool to see. This trip was definitely one of our favorites & still cannot get over how picturesque and perfect this little place could be!
