A topsy-turvy atmosphere has made this surreal establishment,
which serves up excellent Slav fare, into one of Prague's most
popular dining venues. The cluttered dining room has furniture
nailed (upside-down) to the ceiling. The unusual décor does
not detract from the extensive selection of well-prepared dishes on
offer, like Balkan moussaka, tasty stews and soups, meat skewered
on a spit, and delicious pork sausage. Open for lunch and dinner
daily. Reservations recommended.
