Pork Products?

After yesterday's march, had a much quieter day. Max picked me up at my flat at 1:30 and we took the tram to Namesti Republika. We were both hungry so went for another traditional Czech pub. It was charming and the menus were in Czech. They did bring us one in English. I ordered the special of he day - a pork stew with cabbage with dumplings and Max ordered a bacon/beef dish. I ate maybe half of mine and felt that heaviness in the belly begging me to stop (see photo of dish).

Next we went to the Cubist coffee shop for coffee and sacher torte. I love that there was no pressure to actually see the cubist museum or understand the movement. We just ate the food. I reallly love these European coffee houses with their cranky waiters in long aprons. I do feel like I am somewhere different.

Max and I shopped for pants (his) in the British department store and then walked to FAMU which is stunningly situated on the river overlooking the Prague castle. How spoiled must everyone be with this view such a common part of life.

Max took me to the cheap restaurant beneath FAMU where we had only beverages due to the pork earlier in the day. After meeting a Turkish couple, a Costa Rican, a Macedonian and a real Czech, we walked back to Namesti Republika. By then, of course, we were starving so we had to have another sausage from yesterday's stand. $2.50 and you can't really eat anything else.

Tomorrow is shopping and the ballet.
