Cocktails and dreams!

You can’t go past the dirty martinis at Dirty Dog bar.

Midnight in Praha

What will you find when wandering through the streets of Prague at midnight?

Not quite hitting the jackpot

Hold onto your hats (and your handbags) as we delve into the seedy underbelly of Prague’s herna bar scene

A running theme

They may not be the bar where everybody knows your name, but international theme bars continue to hold a special place in expat communities, serving up solace and a little taste of home.

Zlý Časy: Bad Times with Microbrews

“Where are you going?” “Nusle.” “Why the hell are you going to Nusle?  What’s there?” “Zlý Časy,” I told my friend last Thursday afternoon. “And if you like beer you’d be a fool not to join me.” Take the 11 or 18 to Náměstí Bratří Synků and walk 100 meters down Čestmírova. On the left [...]

Fix your bike, make friends and get smarter for free in Žižkov

It’s slowly warming up outside and it’s certainly got me all excited about activities that don’t involve drinking vast amounts in dark caves.

How to survive a company holiday party (hint: it doesn’t involve an inflatable moose head)

Christmas is the season of awkwardness, and the apex of that has got to be the company Christmas party.

It’s raining – try making some mulled wine for a night in

It’s getting chilly out and I’ll have to admit navigating Prague’s cobblestone streets in the rain is not at the top of my fun list. So last week on a particularly unpleasant night, a friend and I stayed in and decided to try our hand at making our own mulled wine – it was super [...]
