Food quality is an increasingly discussed topic in Czech society because Czechs are becoming more interested in and aware about what they eat. They could have been skeptical about certain foods entering their bodies, but they never knew for sure. And that was the biggest problem: there was no such database in which to find detailed information about most foods. Then came along Petr Václavek and his latest, innovative application— Foodgroot. Foodgroot has become the gateway in helping customers figure out from a wide range of products what is exactly in them. The app is able to learn your habits and help you choose according to what foods you just want or needs to eat, and while shopping at a store it then immediately recommends which foods are suitable for you. Moreover, it determines the overall quality, origin(s) of the food, and their impact on the environment or effect on your health. In the app, you scan the bar code of the selected food which then runs the information about its quality, origin, or environmental impact. All in maximum detail. The app rates products on over 70 parameters. “What Google did to the internet, we’re doing for the food market,” Václavek...
Burger King is now becoming the largest chain of restaurants in Europe. It has been in operation for almost 70 years, but it has probably never experienced such a novelty until now. The American fast food chain has always specialized in burgers of all kinds, especially one kind – the taste of meat prepared on an open fire. However, these guarantees no longer apply. Burger King is starting to replace beef with its most popular Whopper vegetable alternative. “In almost 70 years of history, Burger King has been one of the largest product launches on the market. We are introducing a 100% Whopper with 0 percent meat that has gained tremendous interest in the United States and is now coming to Europe,” reported by Daniel Ryška, Head of Burger King in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, today at the recently opened Burger King branch in Prague on I.P. Pavlova. The new burger is called Rebel Whopper and, according to Ryška, it is exactly the Whopper that everyone knows and loves, but no longer contains meat. Rebel Whopper also comes to 24 other European countries, including Poland, Germany, and Italy, being enjoyed in over 2,500 restaurants. Although the food chain back in...

“In general, I think Vietnamese cafes and Vietnamese coffee are quickly integrating into Czechs minds.” Coffee with condensed milk and ice? Excellent! Come and see for yourself at one of Prague’s Vietnamese cafes, opened in 2017 by two childhood friends from Vietnam, who met in the Czech Republic in a camp for Vietnamese children. “We liked coffee so much that we went for it,” says one of the business owners. Tonkin (Dong Kinh) means “Eastern Capital”, which was one of the administrative territories of French Indochina and included the northern part of Vietnam and part of Laos. The intention of the owners, who come from the north of Vietnam, is not just to sell coffee, but to show customers what this part of the country is all about. The café also works as a shop and bistro. You can buy organic food, ingredients for making Vietnamese dishes or products from local businesses and farmers. They serve coffee with homemade desserts, and visitors can also play games. Once a month, there is an acoustic open mic, where anyone can sing or play their instrument. Tonkin Kafé occasionally holds events or exhibitions to bring Vietnamese culture closer to the Czechs. Do you think...
