Guláš

This hearty and traditional Czech dish is a staple of Prague restaurants. A delicious stew of beef and onions, it's gently simmered until tender, and served with delicious Czech-style knedlíky (steamed and sliced dumplings).

Koleno

This outsized chunk of roasted pork knuckle is a Prague food classic. With crispy skin and wonderfully succulent meat, it's typically served with mustard and horseradish and pairs excellently with an ice-cold Czech beer.

Zelnačka

Zelnačka is known to the English-speaking world as 'cabbage soup', but it's infinitely more delicious than the name suggests. A rich and creamy soup made with cabbage, sauerkraut and smoky sausage, trying it is a Czech Republic travel essential.
