Finally, some foreign KZbinr understood the essence of the milk! Good job, great video.

[@NearFromHome]

Thanks!

[@WIStoney32]

It's called a milk pour (Mleko). The tap has a special screen in it that makes the foam that way. It's adjustable. We used to have a local brewery where I live (Wisconsin) that offered milk pours of 3 lagers on tap. It was amazing. They had 3 Czech side pull taps.

[@NearFromHome]

Ahh I didn't know that!

[@davidgreene864]

I was in Prague about a year and a half ago. Wonderful city! I wish I had seen this video before I went. My food experience wasn't as good as it could have been.

[@NearFromHome]

Thanks so much! :D

[@stevemcgowen]

Red Stag is pretty amazing. Not just the food and atmosphere, but the beer is some of the best tank beer in Prague. The founders did previously work at Pilsner Urquell, after all...

[@NearFromHome]

I know right!! Didn't know they used to work at Pilsner Urquell. That makes a lot of sense haha

Love this. The beer, the food, the city itself and wow, the beer bath. 10 litre barrel, yep, that would do. Dark and light beer??? Never thought of that before, sounds very interesting!!!! Enjoying Camille’s dancing, how many beers 😂🍻. That buffet looks great too…making us hungry now guys!!! Those baguettes look mighty fine too. Fair play, you get through a good amount of beer in this video…our kind of video!! 🍻🍻. Mmm that steak!!! The desert looks very good, we loved the trdelnik when we were there. “I live in Bavaria…and it’s Tuesday” 😂😂🍻🍻 excellent!! Really enjoyed that video, top work both. Hopefully see you at Christmas 🎅 🎄🍻

I've heard of the beer baths before and thought they were kind of silly, but I see now how they could be entertaining for some people, so thanks for that! For me, at 55€ per person, I'll just stick to the bars! Prague is a beautiful city with lots of great beers, and many of them are inexpensive as well.

[@NearFromHome]

Thanks so much! I agree! I think if that was the price for two hours, I would be a little more accepting.

just wanna say, I havent seen any of my czechmates drink beer as a milk, its so specific and good for young boys or girls who cant drink half liter and beer stay fresh for longer.. even then theyd have 0,3 liter rather..

[@NearFromHome]

It’s definitely not how I would choose to drink a beer, I’ve got plenty of videos where we drink is classically by the liter in Bavaria :) but it was fun to try something new.

[@petrnetolicky7947]

The usuall beer in Czech is with 2-4cm of foam. Thats what we usually drink. But milk is actually quite refreshing for summer and usually good option if you want drive soon:) What i love now is just to take a bike do about 60km with 2-3 stop at small breweries in countryside. Last few years several hunderds are newly opened and they make really good and interesting beers. They are everywhere.

I don't remember, but you can ask. That's actually how I found out about this. I asked if they had a beer with lemonade, and they told me about the raspberry option. I can't remember if it's on the menu.

Need to identify the restaurants such as show the name & video the name on sign from the entrance. Otherwise loved your video.

outstanding two episodes on Prague. I never really considered it a must-do... but reconsidering after this.

[@JodyOwen-we6oo]

He did a good job! Honest Guide to Prague specializes in Prague/Czech Republic if you get to planning stage. It’s a beautiful, lively town. Worth a visit. It is however relatively expensive (except the beer which is amazing and cheap.). I found it more expensive than Rome or Paris with this caveat. In both I know how to eat and move around cost effectively and in Prague I didn’t.

[@NearFromHome]

Thanks! We did find it really expensive. I think price have gone up a lot since Covid. Love Honest Guide. We based most of the food video on his recommendations. haha

[@jeffnotnuts8205]

First, well done finding Lokal, but know that there are 4 different "pours" of beer here. You showed the "Mlíko" pour.

Thanks! We will have to try the others next time.

How much Czech crowns Does it cost for Czech food and beer

[@NearFromHome]

I honestly don't remember. it has gotten more expensive since the pandemic tho.

[@johnnyz.9684]

Beer is 35-70 CZK. Soup Is around 60 CZK, main course 160-300 CZK. It depends on location etc. If you go outside of Prague it's even cheaper.

Ek het eenkeer in 'n bierbad gebad en 'n vreemde wese het uit die drein gekom, dit het soos 'n paling gelyk. Dit het 'n blou lyf en 'n geelgroen pens gehad, en swart rook het by sy mond uitgekom. Ek het verkies om dadelik uit die bier te klim, maar sedertdien het ek geel kolle op my lyf soos 'n soort kameelperd.

As an American having lived in the heart Prague for nearly 11 years, I was a bit sad to see that nearly all of the ones in your vid are fairly average and/or overpriced also. There are so many better and better priced places in the same areas 🫤 Yes, we also go to the ones in your video…but almost nobody would choose these over others in the immediate. vicinity.

[@NearFromHome]

Cannot wait to watch your deep dive of Prague’s food scene! 11 years is a long time to learn a city :) though frankly given I had 10 days and another full time job to hold down besides this one the fact that you said nearly all and not all is a win in my book.

[@ChicagoDB]

@@NearFromHome Maybe I'll get bored enough to do one. Particulary since none of the ones you covered were good values compared to better alternatives. Lokal for one, is a prime example, since it was the first in your video. I quiet literally live right next door to the one next to Charles Bridge and also go to the one in Old Town on Dlouha also [2 blocks from my other flat in Old Town]. Lokal is actually more popular as a "meetery" for both Czechs and Expats, than as an "eatery" or beer hall. It has a very limited menu of good quality overall...but in terms of beer, only Pilsner Urquell and Kozel Dark...which are both popular brands but not GREAT Czech beers...and their food tends to be small in portion size AND/OR overpriced compared to other places. I'm not gonna slam the place...its just more hype than substance. Next time you're in Prague Old Town, I'd recommend you try "Mincovna" - which is quite literally the only excellent value on the Old Town Square...extremely well regarded by Expats, Czech locals and visitors. Superb food, drink and prices, especially compared to every other place on the Old Town Square. Next time you plan on being in Prague, shoot me a comment/reply here. I'll give you a list of places for you to try and compare versus your recent trip. I would also urge you to try Bernard beers...personally I rank them and their entire line of beers as the best brewer in CZ and one of the best globally... ***Side note: Insanely enough...Prague was ranked #7 in Europe on Trip Advisor for vegetarian/vegans, prior to lockdowns P.S. visitors to CZ are almost always pleasantly surprised by Svickova...its one of the most common czech menu items...and very tasty...glad you enjoyed your Czech dining experiences!

[@cocobunitacobuni8738]

Isn't it annoying to drink foam? Poor Camille. Reminds me of the time I made my wife drink a Guinness.

[@NearFromHome]

Lol, maybe. She did it for the views haha

[@JodyOwen-we6oo]

I really enjoyed Prague. The people were pleasant. The beer was amazing. The town is beautiful. But the food was mediocre at best. The Czech people apparently have some kind of hatred of vegetables and fruit. The food was barely seasoned. And stop calling a slice of sandwich bread s dumpling! To eat well we had to eat non- local food. Even the grocery store had almost nothing a person could make into a decent meal.

[@NearFromHome]

We also struggled with the lack of fruits and vegetables. lol

[@robertmagillold]

Great to see small craft breweries exist over there! While, like you, I prefer Helles & the like, craft beers here stateside are spoiling in variety. Love the idea of the beer spa! That looked like y’all had a fantastic time. 😊 Can’t quite get past my snobbish anti-foam attitude about beer-but your description may help me get past it. So interesting to see how different places drink/eat different things in different ways. What an amazing opportunity you guys have. Keep traveling and keep sharing! Love watching your experiences and learning with ya.

[@toruvalejo6152]

If I can give you one small piece of advice - if you want to have "milk" beer, you have to order it directly as "milk" in a pub that taps Pilsner Urquell (otherwise they will only bring you beer with foam). The foam that is normally left on Czech beer is dry and not supposed to have any flavour - it just protects the beer from weathering for as long as it lasts. When you order "milk", you get a thick wet foam that is thick enough to be eaten with a spoon (if you eat fast enough) and tastes more sweet - that's why it's a good idea to have "milk" as first beer - regular beer is more bitter and not everyone likes to alternate between sweet and bitter flavours so it is better to go from sweet to bitter. And one more thing - tell the waiter to bring you the "milk" straight after the tap, because if you let it stand for too long, the foam will break down and turn into beer (as you could see in the video).

[@NearFromHome]

Thanks so much!! We felt the same way about the foam beer, but it really is more drinkable. It's very bizarre. :D

[@NearFromHome]

Thanks! We did order the beer as 'milk' at Lokal, but not other places. I had never thought about alternating between the true sweet milk beer foam and the more bitter foam. That's very interesting.

[@toruvalejo6152]

@@NearFromHome Lokal taps Pilsner Urquell so U did not go wrong - such pubs even advertise it on tables on beermats holders three ways of tapping the beer: mlíko (as foam "milk") - šnyt (half beer - half foam) and hladinka (normal full beer with a bit of foam on top). And to prevent confusion - I did not mean to alter sweet foam nad bitter foam - there is no bitter foam. I reffered to sweeter taste of "milk" comparing to more bitterly taste of normal beer - if U drink normal beer first then "milk" might not taste good to U because u can go easier form sweet to bitter then oposite. "Milk" is sometimes reffered in Czechlands as beer for girls because girls prefer sweeter tastes and normaly they would ony sip a bit of beer but not whole jug. But maybe U do not have to travel to try it again in Prague - there must be some Czech pub in Bavaria for sure - U may try it there. :) Besides U missed some very Czech meals that R great with beer - 1) roasted duck with cabage and dumplings and 2) pork knuckle. There R some more meals but I will not burden U in advance - next time when U go to Prague I reccomend restaurant Pork's - the make the best pork knuckle in whole the world. Good roasted duck can be oredered anywhere in CZE. ;)
