Bohemian Spirit
Or should we make that “spirits”? Suds are king at this wonderfully friendly, tchotchke-laden Czech beer hall, where there are always three Eastern European draft beers on tap, along with pilsners, wines from that region, and a full liquor menu. Food is of the kind that effectively soaks up all that alcohol, by which I mean hearty/heavy meat-laden plates, like schnitzels and sausages. The Svíčková is their signature dish, and it’s mighty tasty, a flatiron steak sided by bread dumplings and swimming in a sweet-and-sour cream sauce with an additional swirl of whipped cream on top, as if it were a meat sundae. If you still have room for dessert (doubtful, unless you share entrees, which you should) the fruit dumplings are a delight.
