Already from down the road we could smell the wonderful aroma coming from Hana's bakery- Simply Good-

A cute, picturesque, little local bakery in the middle of one of the most beautiful cities in Europe is exactly what you get at Simply Good. Everything at the bakery is cute, pink, so fun and adventurous it felt as if we followed the white rabbit down the rabbit hole into the joyus topsy turvy world of Wonderland! 

So many options to choose from! What to do ?! What to try?! Ahhhhhh! Well, we started with some traditional Czech "Frgal" Pies! You can choose from Frgal pies with walnuts/apple/white cheese, plum jam/white jam, blueberries and much more! We chose the one with blueberries - delicious!

Now time for the nontraditional Czech cakes-  Banana Caramel Cake , Mascarpone, which was phenomenal ,White Chocolate Cake - smooth, creamy and just sweet enough, Brownies and Chocolate Caramel Cake - it looked so good ,we didn't know how to start eating it so we knocked it over to the side and attacked it from all angles!.

Please do yourselves a great favor and order lattes on the side. Not only does it mesh well with the wonderful cakes,cookies and pastries but the staff at Simply Good is so professional and as sweet as the cakes being served ,that the coffee comes out so amazingly flawless. You can definitely feel that they put their heart and soul into it just as Hana puts in her superb cakes.

PRAGUE OPERA!

The State Opera house in Prague originally opened in 1888. Designed by Fellner and Hellmer with such fine elegance, that a night seeing a show is never to be forgotten!

We saw the thrilling drama-  Il Trovatore , an opera of four acts by Giuseppe Verdi.

The audience was a mix of  hipsters,older people, young couples and true opera mavens. The performance was so outstanding that the cast received rousing ovations !

If you have never been to the opera then you truly must go! It is an unforgettable, emotional roller coaster! The combination of vulnerability of the human voice, dramatic narrative  and music makes opera a pure emotional art form. Opera can really make us feel and hear the world differently, it is great stories through amazing music.

"Opera is where a guy gets stabbed in the back, and instead of dying he sings" Robert Burns

PRAGUE  - One of the world's great romantic wonders do to a beautifully preserved town filled with fairy tale architecture. A beautiful ancient city with dreamy fortresses and unique romantic cobblestone streets. The cobblestone streets are beautiful, as they vary in designs, but slightly uncomfortable so make sure you have good walking shoes on ;)

                                                           Shirt and Pants- Bess . K                      

For all you ice cream lovers, Prague is definitely the place for you! Just walk around the city and you will find  delicious ice cream and sorbets,as we did!

 After all that cobblestone walking and ice cream eating we were desperately in need of a massage, so we headed to one of the best massage spots in Prague called -  MYSTIC TEMPLE - Body Care Studio! 
 We decided on one Dragon Stone massage (hot stones) and two classic massages AKA Swedish massages.
 Thai massage is an ancient healing system which combines acupressure Indian Ayurvedic principles and associated yoga postures.

After our Thai massages we felt totally rejuvenated, relaxed and refreshed. Now, off to the amazing Le Degustation for dinner. Not just any dinner but a Michelin star dinner!! Yum!!

                                                             La Degustation Kitchen
Ah, La Degustation (Michelin star restaurant), how elegant and sexy you are!!
 You can choose between two tasting menus: either the 6 course tasting menu -DEGUSTATION BOHEME BOURGEOIUS with wine pairing or juice pairing, or the 11 course meal (which we chose) with the juice pairing - DEGUSTATION DU CHEF.
Our servers were tres professional and elegant. While serving all our dishes they all wear white serving gloves. How chic!
An uber elegant restaurant, yet they suggest eating most dishes with.......your hands!!!!!

Our favorites of the 11 course meal were :
1- The tomato, mustard lovage- delectable!
2- Duck, white cabbage and thyme- soft and palatable.
3- Foi Grass and Pistachio nuts.

One of our favorite and most enjoyable desserts was the looooooong marshmallow that our server brought us and cut right in front of us . It was tres fresh and soft.

                                                                    PRAGUE
A tres beautiful and historical city located right in the middle of the Czech Republic. Prague is the only city in Europe that hasn't been bombed in World War 2, that is why Prague has preserved it's magical authentic architectural heritage. Every corner is picture perfect!

Prague- Old Town Center

                                             Beautiful historic Churches and Cathedrals are everywhere!

                                                           

                                                               THAI FIT
  After walking around the beautiful city of Prague for hours (it's a must to walk everywhere as not to miss out on anything!) and discovering obscure historical gems, we obviously had to be pampered. So we headed to one of the best known spas in Prague - THAI FIT-!

  Known for their wonderful Thai massages and relaxing atmosphere Thai Fit was a perfect ending for a breathtaking magical day walking around the city.

 We undressed and wrapped our bodies in the soft orange towels and meditated until our lattes were ready.

And now time for our authentic Thai massages.

We decided on the Lava Stone Massage with oil- special hand massage using essential aromatic oil and subsequent massaging with the hot stones.
 You will feel your tension fading away with the professional masseuses touch at Thai Fit. A perfect quick escape from stress for your body and soul. At Thai Fit your body and soul will set forth on a journey of total relaxation and complete well being.

Okay, besides being totally delicious, wine, is tres healthy for us! Well, not a bottle a day ;) but a glass a day sure is.

* Studies find that people who drink wine daily have lower body mass than those who indulge occasionally, moderate wine drinkers have less abdominal fat and narrower waists than people who drink liquor!!
* RESVERATROL- it is a key ingredient that helps prevent damage to blood vessels and prevents blood clots. Resveratrol is also an antioxidant that keeps you young!! Can't get better than that!

WINE-

1. It MAKES YOU FEEL CLASSY- You can be at home in your sweats but with a full glass of wine in hand you will feel tres classy!
2. You don't feel bloated like you do after beer.
3. No one will judge you for drinking a glass of wine during the day. Wine is always permittable, especially after a stressful work day.
4. When you are wine drunk you are smart drunk. While when you are drinking vodka cranberries or some kind of other hard drink you are totally stupid drunk!
5. Isn't' wine technically fruit? Fruit is tres healthy ;)

So go grab that glass (or two, or three, heck grab that bottle!)  some cheese and put on a cheesy romantic movie while in your sweats all cozy in bed! Oh what a classy and cosy night!

Our faves -

Red Wine- Catena Malbec (from Argentina).
White Wine- Moscato and Gewurztraminer (just ask for Gevertz).

Cheese- We love -Asiago  (even though it is usually paired with Cabernet Sauvignon we still like it with our Gevertz). Boursin cheese is usually paired up with Gevertz if you are strict on proper pairing.

Enjoy!

"They said one glass of wine is good for you, they never said how many times to fill it" ;0
"If we ever go missing, we want our faces on wine bottles instead of milk cartons, that way our friends will know we are missing"
