Grand Restaurant Festival
22.01.11 14:11During this winter Czech citizens and tourists can visit a couple of super fashionable, luxury restaurants with delightful cuisine for symbolic prices. Thanks to the Grand Restaurant Festival that takes place in 8 cities of the Czech Republic starting from the 15th of January and till the 15th of February all of us have an opportunity to feel like we are the kings having dinner at some beautiful restaurant.
42 different restaurants take part in this festival offering 126 special dishes. The majority of the restaurants are situated in Prague. Among them you can find Art Nouveau at the Prague Municipal House that has luxury interiors with high ceilings and old paintings, SaSaZu – a modern restaurant with Thai food or La Degustation Bohême Bourgeoise – the restaurant that was fully booked even before the sale of the coupons has started.
Every customer has 4 options of the meal:
- Main course with a soft drink will cost you 250,-CZK
- Main course with a soft drink + a glass of wine/beer will cost you 300,-CZK
- 2 courses will cost you 500,-CZK
- 3 courses including soft drinks + 2 glasses of wine/beer will cost you 600,-CZK – sometimes these guests also participate in special events of the restaurants.
All the restaurants have prepared an offer of 3 different courses, so that each guest could choose something very special to taste. For example at the Art Nouveau restaurants you can try the following meals:

When the same festival was held the previous year, about 7055 clients have taken an opportunity to participate in it. All in all they have spent about 7 mil. CZK (approx. 290000,-EUR). And the manager of the festival Pavel Maurer thinks that this time there will be far more people wanting to visit some restaurant. So all you need to do is to visit the website of the festival choose some restaurant you want to visit, what you want to eat and the date! So easy!
