Lokal Blok

Despite the restaurant being fairly empty for lunch, service was incredibly slow. The chef could have easily run out of the back door to the restaurant, gone to the store, prepared, and cooked the meal from scratch in the time it took us to be served. That being said, the chicken was delicious. I think I spent more money on four little glass bottles of water than I did on my meal.

On our first night in Prague, Nida K. and I were hungry, but lacked Unilocal to find a place to eat… now that the Unilocal part is fixed, I’d like to talk about where we had dinner, for those who need a place to eat near our hotel (which was in the south eastern part of the city, near Andel). We used TripAdvisor and found Lokal Blok. Walking there, we began to see briefly how beautiful the city really is, and when we tucked into the crowded, local restaurant (by local, I mean, filled with locals), we were excited though a bit nervous.
I had some amazing meal with goat cheese, chips, beet sauce and asparagus. It was, to be frank, absolutely delectable. The cheese was absolutely amazing, I definitely recall. I had a beer as well, which probably wasn’t anything fancy, but was delicious and complemented the meal beautifully. The staff spoke English, and they had English menus, which makes them a great option for those sightseeing in the area.
It’s not a far walk from Andel, which from our perspective means it had a great location. For a nice, flavorful meal that will warm you (mind you, we were there in January), Lokal Blok is a nice taste of a good Czech restaurant.

Nedoporučuju polední menu. Dal jsem tomu 3 šance a pokaždý jsem odešel nespokojený. Jídlo bych řekl až nechutný (i jsem ho vrátil což dělám minimálně) — ale třeba u mimopoledního menu to může být lepší. Obsluha kolem oběda taky nic extra.
