Visit to Prague

in #blog9 years ago

 So, let me set the Scene….. *dun dun dun* 

…..Recently, I went on a short weekend trip to Prague. On my first day there, I went for lunch at Soho+ Restaurant & Garden

 Soho+ is located right on the Vltava river and has an outside terrace  where you can sit in the Garden and wine and dine in summer.  Unfortunately I went smack middle of February, so it was  fresh to say the least, so inside it was… Which was fine for me. Soho+’s interior is very modern, with white  drapes separating your table from the next, so you really feel like you  have your private area of the restaurant. The decor is very light and  elegant, you can just imagine the place to be pumping with the it-crowd  in summer. 

They have two menus for each season, the sushi menu and the  traditional menu and you’re allowed to order from both. I decided to  have a little something from each menu so I went for the maguro-avokado  from the sushi menu, which was tuna, mayonnaise, avocado and sesame  seeds. Before I devoured it I did manage to snap a few pictures of the  masterpiece. 




 For the main dish, it was onto the traditional menu and was the beef  steak with marrow crust, mini beef tartare, potato fondant. The beef was  so tender and succulent and went so well with the mini beef tartare and  potato fondant (which was a fancy way of saying mashed potatoes made to  look pretty). 





 The lunch was so filling that I was not able to go for a dessert, but  I am sure it would have been amazing. They had options like, non  traditional tiramisu (really tickled my curiosity!), frozen chocolate  parfait with ginger puree (asian infusion) and caramel pineapple creme  brûlée. 

After lunch, we headed to the old town’s square where dozens or  artists and musicians were doing something. There were artists ranging  from native indian musicians with all their native costumes that  included an eagle head on their head, to a grown mimes sitting in a  giant baby crib dressed in a diaper. The square was very creative to say  the least. By now, the sun had started to come out and lighten up the  surrounding houses and buildings, including Prague’s famous Church of  Our Lady before Týn. The Church has been the main church of this part of  the city since the 14th century. 

 Just off the old town’s square, there is the Pařížská Street, Prague’s  most exclusive and expensive street. We strolled down Pařížská, snooped  in the windows of Louis Vuitton & Prada, ooh’ed and aah’ed at the  shiny pumps in the display of Jimmy Choo.

 When we passed Tiffany’s &  Co, I couldn’t help myself but snap a picture of their display. Just  look how pretty and cute the display is! Of course there’s the diamonds  too, but you know.. the display is where it’s at. 

 Sigh. A girl can dream, right? See you with the next post! 

Love,
