The Only Food Guide You Need for Your Prague Trip

Behind the Scenes (and Behind the Koláče!) – Making My Czech Food Video
I just have to tell you — recording my new Czech food video guide was such a fun (and delicious) day.
We had everything ready: camera, lights, photos, and of course — a box full of fresh koláče, those soft little round cakes filled with poppy seeds, jam, or tvaroh (sweet cheese). They were meant to be props, but let’s just say… the cameraman had a very hard time not eating them before we hit "record." 😂
We managed to save a few (barely!) and got some lovely shots for the video. But honestly, the whole process reminded me how exciting it is to share our local food culture with visitors — and how confusing it can be if you're new to Czech menus!
That’s exactly why I created this 6-minute video guide: to give you a fun, clear, local insight into what to try, what to skip, and where to eat like a true Prague foodie.
What you get (besides food cravings 😄):
- A short, beautiful video with real restaurant photos and scenes
- Super easy English (you know me!)
- My personal comments, restaurant tips, and honest advice
- A bonus mini-presentation
- And my own foodie list of favorite bistros, cafés and hidden gems
Whether you watch it on your sofa or on the plane to Prague, it’s a great way to feel prepared and inspired — so you don’t end up in a tourist trap ordering sad goulash with fries. You’ll have a real local (me!) guiding you toward the good stuff.
And I promise… if you start your trip with koláče, you’re already doing it right.
