In the center of Prague’s dynamic culinary scene, NUMARU offers a taste of Korea like no other. With a passion for Korean food that traces back to his roots, founder Roy opened his first restaurant in 2017, driven by a longing for the dishes he grew up with.

Traditional desserts often rely on ingredients like eggs, milk, and butter. But in the world of vegan cuisine, these are left out, replaced by plant-based alternatives that are just as delicious. Fortunately, there are plenty of places in Prague where you can indulge in fantastic vegan cakes, ice cream, and pastries. Let’s explore where to find the best vegan sweets in the Czech capital! Krafin Chutnej – one of Prague’s well-known vegan restaurants – also runs a delightful café and bakery selling plant-based sweet and savory pastries. Their selection ranges from classic croissants and danishes to unique tartlets and chocolate rolls, offering both larger and smaller portions. However, their standout product is vegan donut.

St. Martin’s Day, which Czechs celebrate on November 11, is a holiday of good food and drink. Autumn slowly alternates with winter, and it begins to snow. In the past, the economic year was ending at this time, and the landowners were preparing a feast for their people as a form of thanks, when they were also paid out their wages. And what about today? Today, the feast of St. Martin is a great opportunity to bring a little joy to life! Traditionally, fattened geese are roasted on 11 November, and the first bottles of young wine open at exactly 11:11 am. St. Martin wines are fresh and young, as they only have a few weeks to mature. They are very clear and have a lower alcohol content. So join the celebrations, because it’s high time to taste what this year has brought. Young wine in celebration of St. Martin St. Martin wines are always the first wines of the new vintage. These are fresh and fruity wines, which have matured for only a few weeks, but during this time, they had enough to acquire their distinctive character. For a wine to bear the St. Martin brand, it must be...
