Brno Restaurant Tips by planxty

Restaurace Saplicek: Filling and adequate. Czech cuisine Review

If you have not read my Brno overview page, I must start this with a caveat, namely that it was written in December 2010 from a trip in June 2007. I know that other tips like churches etc. will not age too much but restaurants come and go and standards vary greatly and I have read a couple of more recent and negative reviews of this place.

I rarely eat a large meal in the middle of the day, preferring to save my appetite for the evening but after a fairly strenuous days sightseeing in Brno I was a bit hungry and fancied something filling. Czech cuisine is excellent for this, consisting generally of tasty , hearty food. As you can see from one of the photos, it was not busy with the lunchtime service winding down. the service, however, was poor considering they had so few customers. I eventually managed to order a beer and perused the menu. Skipping starters, I headed straight for the mains and ordered a wild boar dish with dumpling and a side order of potato. Again, service let them down badly and it took an absolute age to arrive. Ah well, time for another beer.

The meal, as I recall, was tasty enough although I have eaten better in the Czech Republic, and it is certainly not the cheapest place I have eaten in in that country. I suspect there are better places to eat although the setting and location are great.

Favorite Dish: I would not like to suggest a favourite dish as I only ate there once as described.
