Sunny Weekend: walking and food (Praha)

The weather was awesome on both Saturday and Sunday.  There were clear views and blue skies.  I wanted to take as much advantage of the beautiful weather as I could.  We walked all over the place and got to try some food from places we haven't tried before.  The first place we checked out was a bakery in the Michelin Guide, Eska.  We tried their babovka and bought a loaf of bread from them.  The babovka was good and the loaf of bread was delicious, but for the price and location of the bakery I do not think we will go back unless we are in the area.  For lunch we decided to go to Nase Maso.  My boyfriend got the cheeseburger and I got a sandwich with Prague ham. We needed to find a place to eat our food and the benches we wanted to sit at were being used for a movie, so we had to walk more towards Old Town Square.  We found a GREAT place to eat our wonderful lunch.  Then we walked back towards where they were filming the movie and then made our way to the riverfront of the Vltava.  On Sunday we walked to Petrin Park and then to the castle.  The castle area was sooooo empty!!!  It was quite weird to see so few people on such a beautiful Sunday afternoon.  Then we went for an open sandwich.  My roast beef open sandwich was quite nice.   Then we decided to try a patisserie called Mysak.  WOW!!!  The venecek was absolutely AMAZING!!! We will for sure go back again.  We ate our lovelies at a park located in the center of the city.  Again we walked to the riverfront and decided to check out a kebab place near Zlute Lazne that always has such a long line.  I couldn't eat one on my own, so I just took a couple of bites and it was really nice.  It didn't taste like a typical kebab because it had nice greens and grilled veggies included in it.  We had to find a park nearby to eat the kebab.  It was a wonderful weekend full of walking (28km) and great food.  On Monday morning, I woke up to snow!!!  Such strange weather!!!
