First Meal

After getting our bags through the door, our landlord offered us some tea, we went over the basics of the flat (heating, water, garbage, etc.) and then suggested an authentic Czech meal for dinner just around the corner from us. Once they left, we ventured into our new neighbourhood and sat down for some Bohemian cuisine. The menu was extensive, not War and Peace extensive, but maybe People magazine extensive, but without their insightful columns. We asked for authentic Czech food and the waiter came back with two plates. The first plate (Sarah's) was chicken breast coated in a potato-type breading with sauerkraut and the second (mine) was gravy with sides of beef and bread dumplings. The former of the two was tastier, but half of the latter could feed an army. The food was honestly not bad at all and I would definitely have it again, not to mention two pints of Pilsner Urquell beer cost us 50 Crowns or $2.90 Canadian. All in all, a good first meal in the Czech Republic.
