You Do Not Need To Be Stuck In Tourist Traps. Experience the Real Prague, Go Where The Locals Go
Prague is visited by millions of tourists every year. Few tourist realize that just a block away from the tourist traps are where the locals eat, drink and live.
Imagine walking a block down a cobbled street and entering a completely different Prague. Away from the crowds of tourist. Away from the tour groups, clicking cameras and tacky gift shops.
The book will teach you everything you need to know to go where the locals go: how do I know a good restaurant from a not so good restaurant? how do I get there via the metro, tram, bus, or taxi? how do I read the menu? what kind of food will they serve? how do I communicate with the waiter? should I be scared of locals? why should a man always walk into a restaurant first?
Besides helping you getting away from the tourist and experience the real Prague, this book will save you money. In a restaurant catering to tourists a pint of beer costs 100 CZK ($5.50 USD), a block away at a local restaurant the exactly same beer costs 26 CZK ($1.40 USD).
