Subject: 'Vegan in Prague'
Posted by flamekat on: Tuesday, May 08, 2007 at 09:04 AM PST

Prague is actually a wonderful place to be vegan. From Country Life to Albio\'s to the tofu sandwich at Bohemia Bagel, I stuff myself silly every time I go. Although traditional Czech cuisine isn\'t very veggie friendly, Prague is a big city and it\'s easy enough eat well as a vegan. My favorite restaurant is Country Life. I go there for lunch almost every day I\'m there, and I do a lot of my shopping at the attached health food store. My fiance and I also really love Clear Head, although mostly for the atmosphere. If they had a decent vegan dessert, I\'d be sold.
Czech tea houses are an often overlooked source of veggie food. Most of them have things like couscous and Lebanese pizzas. The major supermarkets all seem to carry tofu (there are 2 Czech brands), vegan mayonnaise (tofuneza or sojaneza, I can\'t remember which), and some have vegan yogurts and puddings.
My absolute favorite find in Prague are these excellent tofu pates. They carry them at Albio\'s and Country Life. I didn\'t know what they were at first, but once a Czech friend served them to me, I was HOOKED! I always stock up on them when I visit now. The best flavors are red pepper and herb.

Watch out if you take a taxi cab in Prague. I had 1 guy who was unscrupulous in his determination to make some cash. After that I used the metro; cheap and easy.
