Reality Czech

we were stuffed and no longer Hungray, then decided to Czech out…

Prague

the city is actually called Praha, but is somehow called Prague.  never quite understood why we change the names of places that already have a name, but I didn’t invent English, and am happy that most people in big cities around the globe speak English, so I no complainsz.  also makes ordering McDonalds much easier

yep, McDonalds.  me and the wife broke down and had to try their fried cheese balls.  and Burger King’s too!!!  AND THEY WERE ha-mazing.  not sure why these aren’t sold in America(/Philadelphia), considering we love cheese AND fried things!!!

#ÄŒzechingOut all the local cheese ball delicacies

in the same mall eatery there was a place that grabbed our attention

la finger food

but the finger food didn’t grab out appetite

finger food 2

so American that Bay Watch plate!!!  (it’s about $4)

finger food 3

sadly Czech people don’t speak and spell like Hungarians, so no szósz here :(
