Czech food is not, um, known for a breadth of flavors. It's heavy on the pork products and/or by-products, which is fine for those of us who love that wonderful, magical animal that gives us bacon, ham, and sausage, but rough on those who want to try something different. Thus, I was excited to see Perpetuum, in Prague, get added to the roster of nicer Czech restaurants with this solid review in the Prague Post. In Dejvice, no less, which is becoming something of a foodie neighborhood. Or it will, one day, since that's where all the big, nice houses are getting built/bought/redeveloped.
Nonetheless, the Perpetuum is interesting because they avoid the pork problem altogether by only serving goose and duck based foods, with the occasional quail egg thrown in for good measure. I'm excited to try this place the next time I am in town, and I hope I'll finally be able to recommend somewhere other than Kolkovna for people who want to try Czech food in a less intimidating atmosphere.
