I used to live in the second building Janek visited (with the artisan café, Vejvodova 445/1 or Jilská) and there is another interesting fact about it. As he already mentioned, it was called a ball room (ballgasse), because of its usage. But it is also said to be the first place where the modern version of tennis had been invented. Of course the game itself was much older, but the rules of the game that were used there were very similar to the rules we have today. It's something that cannot be proven really, but I found it nice and symbolic to live in a building that could've played a key role of inventing the sport I (and many Czech people) really love. And the last fun fact. The building was originally built in the early 13th century and it is yet another example of having a building so old, that because of all the debris that accumulated on the streets throughout the time, the original first floor is today converted into a basement as the street level have risen since then. Of course since then the building had been altered several times and the current layout had been finished at the end of 1860s. All in all, it was an interesting place to live in and surprisingly large. It is possible to rent a couple of spacious flats there (airbnb was used quite a lot unfortunately and some of the tourists were quite loud) or even buy one. The prices aren't low, but not as high as you could expect from such an old building. Just be careful, it has its quirks and for example in the winter tends to be quite cold unless you constantly run the heating.

I’m in Prague currently. I’ve taken your recent food recommendations! Had Las Adelitas first, definitely true that it was good for locals and tourists. Service and food were incredible. Then went to Strídačka (the hockey bar), it took a couple of tries as it was so busy but we finally got in and the food was incredible also. I’m booked up for Pasta Fresca tomorrow and really looking forward to it. Also got the Větrník from Cafe Savoy (along with juice, a ham omelette and a ham & cheese croissant for breakfast). Everything you’ve recommended so far food wise has been amazing!! One thing my partner and I have struggled with is wondering what to do in the evening as we don’t drink. I feel like we will definitely return to Prague with a better list of things to do. I didn’t have a tonne of time to put together a large list of things to do this weekend on our first trip to Prague but I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my visit and have not been bothered by any scammers. I got my train ticket checked and the ticket checker showed me a badge which I initially thought was a scammer trying to sell me a key ring and I just put my hand up to him to him and said “no, no” without realising who he was at first so that was a bit awkward!😂 Loved it though! Been watching your videos for quite a few years and it is great to finally be in Prague after viewing it on my small screen via your videos for so long!

Mala Strana, or also traditional in german: Kleinseite (klein = little, small) is not Lesser Town! What is Lesser Town? Little Quarter in my Opinion is the "honest guide" Translation for the historical Quarter: Mala Strana/Kleinseite/Civitas Minor. In former times it was an own Town linked with Charles Bridge to the old town. Jan Neruda was an important writer in the 19th Century, who was born in Mala Strana/ Kleinseite or like to say in english: Little Quarter.

Hey, I speak some Polish, it looks like I should have no problem to move around in the Czech Republic, right? For example, when you were showing the coffee shop in the house of fashion - I could read the sign. By the way, my wife and my son they went to Czech Republic couple years ago and they just loved it. They went to a restaurant and boom the waitress right away brought a couple of beers. They said that you guys drink a lot :-) but the food is phenomenal. The major issue was exchanging money in the bank - the rate horrible. But they take visa everywhere. I also recommend taking the train from Prague to Vienna. It is a great trip, great food, and of course beer too :-)
