    Trdelník? Those round pastry things everyone was eating?

    I ate goulash which is different from Hungarian goulash, krkovice (Port neck), svíčková (twice), a big spicy sausage served with condiments and vegetables, apple strudel and traditional pancakes (breakfast) served with fruit and nuts and sour cream. All the food was excellent. Again, (generally) tried to avoid the touristy places, choosing traditional places full of locals. 

    Yes, the round thing. It smells better than it tastes. Instead, try some local pastries (věneček, rakvička, větrník, etc).

    Another place you shouldn't miss is Vyšehrad. And Petřín, something to please your romantic soul. :devilshades:

    I wouldn't say so considering I saw all of Hradčany (e.g., St Vitus, Old Royal Palace, St George's, Golden Lane, etc etc), all the Jewish stuff (synagogues and Old Cemetery), about a million other churches including the church where the assassins of Reinhard Heydrich were cornered in 1942. Did drink lots of beer and ate all traditional food in Czech places. I think the dopey Brits go to the nightclubs?

    Did you visit Nový Svět (New World) as well? It's in the Hradčany area but not many people know about it. Not sure if there's snow in Prague but an evening walk in snowy Nový Svět is awesome. 

    I'd also highly recommend visiting Klementinum with an astronomical tower and one of the most beautiful libraries in the world.

    And please, don't eat "trdelník", it has nothing to do with a traditional Czech cuisine. Tourists love it though.
